Clones are genetically identical to that of the original ones. If and when humans are cloned whether they will have identical mind? What will be social impact of the cloning?
Recent research indicates that to a larger extent human behavior, thoughts and emotions are encoded by his own genome. Although Scientists today claims to have an understanding of what genetics is, they are still unable to contemplate the mind and its existence. Where does the mind exist? (Brain, heart or in an unknown mainframe?) Once we reach this conclusion, better understanding should follow.
I think the answer can be found at research of monozygotic twins. At least, that's the situation you described: genetical indetical human clones. The only difference is that (mostly) they were not produced in-Vitro.

All identical (monozygotic) twins are genetically identical to each other. They bear the same genetic code. If you have ever met any you will know that they do not have the same mind even though they share nature and nurture. A person and his mind is largely the sum of experiences and the same events imprint minds in different ways.
and Rasheeba, the mainframe beyond a doubt is contained within neural networks. It is a highly complex algorithm but there is no doubt about where it resides. The heart is a complex tissue with a very specialised function- pump blood through the body of the organism. Please do not confuse fact and pseudo-sciences.
