Once again, all these are natural, whilst human cloning is not.

Mephisto, what would the position be on artificial insemination, or fertility drugs to help women conceive a child? How about storing a man's sperm for use at a later date? Medicine has been responsible for creating life in a "unnatural" manner for quite a while, with organ transplants and vaccinations - why is it that this medical breakthrough is playing God in any greater way?
