Ozkan Gelincik

there are many debates from all around the world about the ethics of human cloning and human genome editing via CRISPR etc.

Employing those techniques without carefully calculating future repercussions would be quite foolish and dystopian.

Article Cloning humans? Biological, ethical, and social considerations

Article "Goodbye Dolly?" The ethics of human cloning

also you can read Yuval Noah Harari's fantastic book Homo Deus for some downtime fun on this topic.

Big No to human cloning. Recently I came across 'The Island ' movie.. in which the ethical issues related to human cloning was shown in their own way. How the clone reacts or survives with respect to the environment, how is it's emotional level ....and later on how they overtake the existing human race.
