I thought the "left" twin was always the evil one?
Cloning, eh? I see very little purpose to creating a full fledged clone of any human being. Creating an eventual carbon copy of oneself? Replacing a dead child? Can't have a child? Ridiculous.
Why would you want your own mini-me to raise? Are your genes so great?Why would you torture yourself by having a child that looks identical to the one you lost? Haven't you suffered enough? What edge does cloning have that fertility drugs do not? I for one would rather raise a "joint" project than a "single" contribution.
Once it's possible to clone individual body parts/organs, then I'll be interested. Once there's a way to move "me" from one body to the next, then I'll be interested. Until then it's all farting in the wind.
I have no problem concerning the ethics and/or morality question when it pertains to cloning. They're your cells. Do with what you will. To say otherwise would contradict the very core of my being. Cloning does not have the potential to lead us to dangerous country, only a very stupid, vain and self-absorbed one.
