Organ cloning should happen for future organ failure because great benefits could come from organ cloning; for an example, easy replacement of inner organs and tissues for patients in need and waiting of transplants. The cloning of organs would dramatically decrease, or maybe even eliminate the number of people waiting for organ transplants in the U.S. because that what we organ supporters want. We don’t want people to go through the emotional, psychological, and physical pain of having to wait on an organ donor list, we could easily fix all this emotional, psychological, and physical pain by getting the non-believers to support organ cloning, and making clones of organs for the people that need the clones. We would save thousands and maybe millions of people’s lives, as well as prevent family members from going through the hard times of the death of a family member. This could all happen if we did organ cloning. Organ cloning would also be an answer to the infertility problem with couples. Couples would no longer have to worry about not being able to have babies, as well as not having to go through emotional scaring. Organ cloning could mainly help in fighting the wide range of genetic diseases and genetic organ failures, like liver disease and kidney disease. Not only would the patient benefit from organ cloning but the whole world would as well.

Consequences of Organ Cloning

By: Vincente Sigala

Organ cloning is a medical practice performed by doctors, which involves cloning an organ for replacement a human’s body that needs a new organ. There are some decent things that could come from organ cloning, but it is outweighed by the adverse situations that are done before and after organ cloning. Organ cloning shouldn’t be practiced in today’s medical field.

Organ cloning is unethical and should not be practiced in the United States. The process of which organ cloning is possible, makes it not worth doing. Being said, organ cloning involves a series of unethical procedures. Organ cloning is going against God and beliefs; it destroys uniqueness, as well as gives scientists the power to act like gods.
