Clone Wars

This is not the place, and I'm certainly not person, for a thoughful debate on the ethics of cloning. But I thought I'd make note of today's announcement by a "team of reproductive specialists" that they are about to begin human cloning of 200 test subjects. The sci-fi geek in me is intrigued by the concept, its applications and its ramifications. But I also believe in God, in the human soul, and that there are just some things that we are not meant to do. This scares the crap out of me.

Just because we can, it does not necessarily follow that we should.
