The moral and ethic problems with human cloning

Kimmo Huosionmaa

In many movies, the cloning of human being is strictly prohibited, and this kind of things are very difficult to think. We have the technology for that kind of actions, and somebody claims, that some of the most brilliant scientific geniuses have been cloned. The cloning is a very simple process, we must just take the fetus, what is in one cell level and suck the genomes out of the nucleus, and replace that with another genome, what is taken from other organisms.

And that thing works with humans as well as other mammals. But there are many juridical and ethical problems with that thing, and one is, how we deal with the clone? Would we treat it like other children, and another thing is that the biometric identifiers with the clone and the original person would be identical. That makes a threat, that in some country would be made clone about some military commander, and that clone would be used to replace that person. In this operation, the original commander would be murdered and the clone would replace this person.

But there are persons who claim, that human cloning would take the fear of death from humans. And that kind of things are giving many ideas for some movies, where some "horrible person" would execute, and this person would make the clone about self. That thing is very interesting, and same time horrible point of view of this thing. But this kind of things are possible, and when we are thinking about the marginal persons, they don't care about laws and orders.

When we are thinking about cloning, we are facing the thing, that what we should do, if that thing is done? Have we got moral or ethic right to justify some person to death, because we think that the person is a clone? Is that reason to kill somebody? And how we can prove that somebody is cloned if the original person has been lost. Also, we can think, how to prove that the person is a clone if we see only one person?

There is medical disease known as progeria, what means that person would get elder really fast. In some discussions, there is meant, that some scientists are investigating the thing, that the virus would connect the progeria genome to the cells of the person, what makes this human getting elder faster. And when the person looks like old enough, the progeria genome would be removed from the cells. This makes possible to create the copy also from some mature person. But this text is meant also for philosophical thinking.

Mysterious genomes and increasing the speed of the evolution

Kimmo Huosionmaa

There is one mysterious place on Earth, what is called the "Bohemian cave", and there are theories about secretive rituals and even satanism what is claimed to be the purpose of this place. The secrecy around that place is feeding theories about the purpose of that area, and one of them is the eugenics. When we are thinking about the "pure line" increasing of some quality. The use of the "pure lines" is very common with the racehorses, and that is a very unpopular thing when we are thinking the human beings. The making super-individuals is a very delicate thing in the world of science, and this is very much against religion.

 But if the purpose is to use the enriching genome material there would be two or more groups of individuals, and when we are planning to drive those lines together and create the super individual, we must say, that there would be many social problems with that kind of creatures. So where would you hide this kind of individual, if you would get that thing? There are two ways to hide those persons. One is in the middle of the middle of the sibling series. In that case, that individual would not be the eldest or youngest child.

 That protects the child from envy, what comes from siblings.  Other is deliver that individual to the children's home. But when we are thinking about the evolution, we must create super humans or super individuals in a very short period. In this case, would there create the fetuses by using in vitro fertilizing. And that would mean also simply connecting the DNA:s of those persons in the laboratory.

This allows making evolution very fast because the nanotechnology can cut the DNA and connect the other genomes to that genetic code. When the maker of this thing is satisfied, would this maker of the test just take one blastula, and suck the DNA away from the nucleus, and then replace that thing by the synthetic DNA. This thing can increase the speed of the evolution very effective way.

Increasing of the evolution is very interesting and horrifying thing, what would bring many things to our mind. In this kind of cases, we must say, that the science itself has no moral. We the people are defining, what is legal and morals. And this is a very problematic thing in the world of science. There is, of course, orders what people should do in the scientific experiments. But we know, that there are no orders about genomes. The proof about the genetic experiments is very difficult to get, and this is one of the greatest problems in legislation.

But there is another very big question about the cloning. What will the authorities do, if somebody has made the human clone? The answer would not be so simple as we are thinking. If we are thinking that we would destroy that creature after the birth would make us the Nazis. And here we must remember a thing about science. We are responsible for our actions, what is the thing, what the scientists should think. There are many opportunities in the field of biotechnology and genetics. And there are also many fears about this kind of things. The moral and ethical questions about the genetics are very complicated things. And we must understand, that we must think consequences before, we are doing something.

The modern laboratories have capacities, what we probably don't even realize. The nanotechnology allows us to create synthetic DNA, and also connect it to any sequence of the genomes. It allows us to create new intelligent species. And this is the biggest threats in history. But genome-technology is also the greatest thing in the history of mankind. We can create a new body for ourselves and transfer our memories to that body, and this thing opens new visions in the good and bad.


This is the question about science. In the medieval period, the surgery was prohibited, because patients died in that operation, but in the modern era, the surgery is the normal procedure, or do you know anybody, who died because of typhlitis, but removing this body part was very dangerous operation in the medieval period. This is the thing in science and technology. The advantage in technology and science gives us more opportunities but the same things cause new threats. This is the thing, what we must realize when we are creating new things and ideas. Every new thing has two sides, and none of the new inventions is purely good or evil.

The artificial womb can revolutionize the cure for burnings and many other things.

Growing the lamb fetus in the artificial womb would revolutionize the genetics and rescue of the endangered species in the world. Artificial wombs are tried before, but the plastic bag would make those things lighter and easier to operate, than previous the glass or plastic dish, what is tested before. This kind of technology can allow creating the new skin, organs or even entire new body for people. And it can be used for cloning animals and humans.


The purpose of the plastic bag is to keep the fetus away from the bacteria and air, and that would make possible to grow fetuses in safer conditions than the plastic dish, and if this thing would work, it can be used to creating even the new bodies for humans. This plastic bag is very easy to move, and it can be used to grow the tissues for people, who are lost the large area of their skin.


The plastic bags can be used to create cell cultures, and that could transport to the area even in the handbag if there would be the necessary life support system. But when we are going to think about this fetus, we could use this kind of technology, where is used the blood bags can revolutionize the agricultural meat production. Of course, this bag can be used to creating the muscle cells in the culture, and that would allow growing the beef like some vegetables.


But the genome manipulation would allow creating the animals, what nervous system would operate that way, that those animals would have the temperament what the genome specialists want it to have. When we are returning the opportunities, what this technology can give to the humans, one of the most important targets for plastic bag fetus could be that the dangered animals fetuses and puppies could be grown outside the natural mothers, what would make possible to create the massive number of puppies in short period.


In this cases, the puppies are made with the cloning method, and that could save some extremely dangered species.  And maybe in the tomorrow, we can create also humans in that kind of artificial wombs. This is the very interesting thing because if the fetus of the lamb can be made by this kind of technology, would it used to humans. When we are thinking the technology, where the blastula cell's nucleus would be replaced with other DNA, and that would allow cloning people like Albert Einstein. That kind of technology in the wrong hands is very dangerous.


Because if this technology is thought in the view of the angle of the military, there could be made the clones of the best military operators in the entire military forces. In this scenario, the operator would be doubled, and if another would die, the clone would take the place of that person. This is, of course, the vision of some sci-fi movie, but there is the possibility that some scientist would make human clones, even that would be against the law. In this scenario, the lone persons, who have difficulties to get children could simply clone themselves.  The artificial wombs can be equipped with brain core stimulation, what makes training before born possibly by using electric shock by modified EEG-machine to brain core.

The technology would not very difficult to handle, and that would make difficulties for lawmakers, how to handle the question about the rights of clones. In the real life, the clones can be made for giving extra-organs to some person, and if those organs are from the cloned body they would fit perfectly into the new body. And that would make necessary to determine the rights, what the clone might have. This is one of the biggest moral questions what the mankind have faced.


Have we right to make clones, because of organs, or would those things have human rights? And in some scenarios, the assassinators would make murder and replace the target with the cloned person, who is brainwashed by some notorious organization. This has been pure theory or imagination, but this new technology would make those questions actual. And even the cloning of the human would be prohibited, there are always people, who have money to make that kind of things. And in places like Pattaya would be doctors, who have back-office work, and who would make that kind of clones. In those places, the boys would get silicone implants in the hour, and here I must ask, what those doctors do in the back-office.
