In a world where recent advancements have gone beyond the limits of imagination, technology has visibly interfered with the natural order of creation. Firstly, both human and animal cloning raise serious safety and moral questions regarding the outcome of the procedure. Also, the idea of cloning humans is accompanied by numerous reasons why this potential step in scientific progress should not be taken. Lastly, animal organs transplanted into humans can have various negative consequences on both parties involved. Humans do not have the right to play God, because that would not just mean meddling with nature, it would clearly mean breaking the rules of nature.
Several developments in science can prove to have a harmful effect, because humans are not smart enough to control the results of their own actions. Animal and human cloning are rather dangerous, due to the difficulty of the practices. So many things go wrong in the early phases of genetic development. First of all, a lot of animal embryos do not develop fully in the surrogate mothers, leading to huge losses. In addition, many of the few embryos that do survive, have terrible genetic defects, which lead to the immediate or tardy death of the newborn. What is worse is that scientists have no way of controlling or correcting all these things that do not go according to plan. Also, on a safety basis, the disadvantage of cloning is the fact that the process might lead to businesses that will market embryos illegally. In the case of human cloning, the concerns raised here are more complex. Human cloning is an unethical and immoral use of science, because it tampers with the rules of nature, and it is a form of playing God. Furthermore, the children would have no parents and no family, since they would be the result of an experiment. Safety problems have an important influence on how people view this discovery, as well. Given the extremely low numbers of embryos that survive in animal cloning, it would be dangerous
