Essay On Therapeutic Cloning

Those who approved of torture techniques wanted to protect Americans and “keep faith with the victims of terrorism and to prove to [their] enemies that the United States would pursue justice relentlessly” (McCain). Compared to the previous events, it’s understandable that the U.S. has such a high torture acceptance rate, however countries around the world have margins that are much less in favor for torture, so what’s the difference?

One of the problems with re-emergence of diseases we thought we eliminated has been immigrant children bringing the disease to the US due to improper vaccination protocols in their country of origin or skipping vital vaccinations. If there is a way to help increase the number of children being vaccinated, then we should try to make that possible. This can be done by assessing the current situation with vaccinations in the United States, analyzing the benefits for this type of program and proposing how to implement a program in areas where immigration is a major concern. By looking at the immigrant population and ensuring that these children are also properly vaccinated then we can help to reduce the number of disease re-emergence so this is not a problem for us in the future.

Lithium Chloride Causes Reduced Exploratory Behaviors in Rats Abstract In this pharmacological experiment, the affects of Lithium Chloride LiCl were studied using the Open Field Apparatus to assess for anxiety and fearful behaviors. The Sproang Dolleys were given an IP injection of LiCl then the total distance traveled was measured using the Open Field Apparatus. Other than the total lines crossed, no discernable affects were noted. The unequivocant data confirmed the initial hypothesis by proof in the results. Introduction LiCl is effectively used at treating the positive symptoms exhibited in humans with bipolar disorder .

The supporters of both sides of this topic have many motives to clone or not to clone. In general, I am against cloning in all cases because the spirit is transferred to us through God because of love and our parents transferred it to us through love also through relation. Why some curious scientists have playing the role of God in their laboratories? Reproductive cloning would reduce the sense of uniqueness of an individual. It would interrupt deeply and widely convictions concerning human individuality and liberty, and could lead to a reduction of clones in comparison with non-clones.

According to the author Arthur Caplan one of the possible benefits of genetic engineering is eliminating genes known to cause cancers and hereditary diseases, “This would allow us to eliminate heartily diseases (sickle anemia, type one diabetes, and so) allowing our children to live a better life” (Caplan). By being able to cut out a certain genes that are connected to cancers and hereditary would lead to lesser amount of people dying and suffering from something that they have no say over. The author Gordon Dillow argues that a possible discoveries would lead to more of a perfect population, “The results of such discoveries could benefit humans immensely, possibly eradicating genetic defects” (Dillow). With many benefits of Genetic Engineering there are still those who oppose to it. But on the other hand, Genetic Engineering can possibly lead “Playing God” to being able to create Humans “designer babies” inevitably going against morals of various societies.

Gene therapy includes the modification to the body’s set of rules, which causes large quantities of people to raise many ethical discussions. Some of the concerns surrounding gene therapy involve the fret of the way good and bad utilisations of gene therapy are separated from one another, the decision-maker that determines which traits are of a normal state and which make up a disorder, if people should be permitted to use gene therapy to intensify their main human traits (as in tallness or shortness, athletic capability, intellect, etc.) without necessarily having a disorder to treat, the high prices of gene therapy that invites only the wealthy, and if international usage of gene therapy would make our society less forgiving of people who are dissimilar. Bone marrow or blood cells have been the main targets for treating people that need gene therapy. This kind of gene therapy can not be passed on to the offspring of the patient.

There are ethical controversies when destroying human embryos for research following the use and the creations of human embryos that are used for stem cell research and therapy. It causes moral problems, as it appears to bring tension within two fundamental principles that are valued highly. It is morally banned to intentionally destroy innocent human beings. The human embryo is looked as an innocent human being, and therefore means destroying a potential human life. (11.)

This epidemic is killing many people, this would normally be seen as a terrible thing but St. Cyprian does not value life in this world. He sees life as a burden or pain, which explains why he says many Christians were “being liberated from the world.”1 Again he reassures himself that he has the correct set of beliefs by expressing that only Christians, like himself, are able to enjoy the afterlife. St. Cyprian also saw society breaking down as a test to see who would make the morally correct decision especially when it’s the absolute least convenient time.

“Those who believe an embryo isn’t a human person see no problem in cloning embryos and taking their stem cells even though doing so kills them.” The outcome of trying to help cure a disease is millions of dead people. Is it worth it? The outcome of human cloning gives people too much power; they can regulate who is in the world and pretty soon, things like what characteristics they possess. I believe that medicine is a gift from God that we can use to try to save people and I think the means of therapeutic cloning are good, but we shouldn’t commit an immoral act like taking someone’s life to try to save another. Cloning is just trying to take God’s place, claiming His perfection as ours.

The thought of improving the human race by manipulating who is allowed to breed can either be appalling or compelling. There are a few appealing aspects to the act of eugenics. If eugenics were applied, the world could potentially see a decrease in disease, a rise in intelligence, and heightened physical aesthetic in humans. But, ethically it crosses many boundaries that have prevented this idea from going into world-wide effect in the past. A benefit to eugenics is it could lead to the reduction of genetic diseases in the gene pool.
