HIHI~~ I'm Chan Mo Sze. #4. In my opinion, cloning is acceptable for me. When every new technology is developed, many problems will evolve. Although these problems include moral controversy, cloning is still beneficial when it really helps those in suffering, especially when there is no alternative methods to curl the illness). However, I feel a bit regretted on this topic since this technology is still under investigation. Hope that this technology will be well-developed soon, and who are in sadness would have joy in one day. That's all for my feeling. | ||

6B 沈宇軒 對於複製, 剛開始時的我是抱有反感的態度。因為開始的時候, 有關複製的資訊都是有關那裡的科學家於複製技術有什麼重大的突破, 那裡的科學家成功以另一些技術複製, 第一頭複製的貓誕生等。因此我覺得這是人自毀的行為, 有違自然。但隨著時間發展, 複製技術亦被用於其他方面,例如:生物保育, 亦有討論嘗試於複製絕種生物。 對於把複製技術用於生物保育, 我則十分贊同。可能是因為這是人類對地球的補償了吧~! | ||

係我呀~沈宇軒~ 對於mousse的意見~ 我有以下回應: 任何技術都沒有好壞之分的。只在於使用者的出發點, 只要是從好的方面運用, 任何事都可造福世界。 | ||

Poon Kwok Ming ar!! I agree with what Sum Yu Hin had said. If cloning is used on helping the endangered or extincted species, it is a good attempt. If cloning is just a technolgy for the scientists and doctors to earn money, for example, cloning of pets, or even a human being, then I think it is unacceptable. | ||

Hi! I'm Poon Kwok Ming. Being a citizen, I think cloning of most successful individuals is nonsense. There should not be two, or more, identical individuals in the world since everyone should be unique. It is meaningless that everyone has the same intelligence, artistic skills and physical abilities and there is no difference between individuals. Moreover, we cannot sure that the one having the same intelligence, artistic skills and physical abilities with the successful individuals will also be successful at all. Experiences and chances are also the important elements leading to success which cannot be cloned from those most successful individuals. Therefore, I disagree with the cloning of most successful individuals in our society. | ||

I am yeung pak sun. I agree with Poon Kwok Ming. There should not be two, or more, identical individuals in the world since everyone should be unique. | ||

I am yeung pak sun. In my opinion, cloning is good but it should not use to duplicate human. Everyone should be unique. Also, this news technology will make many ethic and religous problems when it applied on human, like the relationship of the duplicated one and the original one is confused. This new technology should be used in duplicate some endangered or extincted species when it is fully developed. It will make the ecosystem more balance. One thing must be considered before application is the completion of the technology, because the effect of changed some genes in an organism is unpredictable. | ||

I am Chan Chi Tak. When I hear the word 'cloning', I will have a thinking of 'copying something'. I believe that a original one and a copy are identical. If I see the identical words and pictures inside the books, and the identical printings, I don't feel strange. However, it is rather difficult for me to imagine two men have the same faces, personalities and behaviours. If this really happens, it is so terrible. Cloning is not a natural method to make an human being. As God makes everything unique, cloning violates this rule. If cloning is applied to human, uniqueness of human is longer a consoling reason when someone is sad! As a result, I don't agree with cloning. | ||
| 991076 Username: 991076 Registered: 04-2003 |
I am Chan Chi Tak. I agree with Yeung Pak Sun. As the technology of cloning has not been mature yet, scientists and society should think more deeply whether this is good and correct to do this. Generally, cloning some endangered species is acceptable. Still, cloning human can lead to many problems such as religious problems. They must be considered critically! | ||

ReNa: #7: Should society attempt to clone its most successful individuals? I think this technology mustn't be promoted. You can imagine if every couple cloned themselves a child with perfect intelligence, perfect outlook, perfect skills... then all people will be the same! I understand that couples don't want their child to be lag behind in the academic result, and always want their child to be outstanding and healthy. But this is a fact! Everybody has some flaws, that's why their are adjectives such as 'ugly' and 'stupid'. However, it is fair that everyboday has their own talent. The combination of different talents and flaws make everyone a unique individual. Therefore, I am certainly against the suggestion to clone a successful individual. | ||
| 991007 Username: 991007 Registered: 04-2003 |
Choi Tsz Lam: I agree with Rena's opinion. If every parents has their perfect children, they will always focus on their great talents but not loving them. They cant accept any minor mistakes on their children. Also, if all people are excellent person,how the society will become? there is no comparison of good and bad. And so we cannot see other's good. | ||

Choi Tsz Lam: #4: I am neutral to cloning. I think cloning is a very powerful technique. Human can do what only God do in the past. Some people may object to it because of ethics. I think we must sacrifice something when we get something. In this way, we can save some endangered speicies but we may destroy the environment's balance. There must be good and bad points. However, if cloning become common in the future, the world will be in a mess. Genes are the only thing that is unique in human. Many crimes may happen. And we cannnot distinguish people accurately. | ||

Leong Ka Ho: I agree with Choi Tsz Lam. Cloning is a powerful but dangerous technique. If we just simply think cloning is only creating the "man-made person", we are absolutely the fools. The cloning person should be much "perfect" than the normal one. By the natural selection, weaker have to extinct and as a result, we will disappear very soon. However, it is no doubt that cloning, this powerful technique, is helpful for many people to save their lifes if it is for the medical use. | ||

BALL: #6 i think it's a quite interesting situation.(Of course not a happy situation) But if really happened,that my husband died and my baby would die within few days, being a wife, i really wanted to keep something from my husband(our baby).Cloning another child is the only way to do so. yup, the 'cloning' baby is exactly come from my husband and my genes. however, it loses the meaning behind. What i really wanted to keep is the memory and love with my husband and my baby.I don't know whether i can really consider the 'cloning baby' as my baby! therefore, i think i should stay with my babies for his last few days and just let it go when it really have to go. | ||
| 991122 Username: 991122 Registered: 04-2003 |
i agree with ReNa. if we do clone the most successful indiviuals, no one will be the real sucessful individuals, because there will be no difference between anyone anymore! How horrible the society! | ||

Leong Ka Ho: #5: As I mentined before, cloning is a powerful but dangerous technique. This technique should not be used unless there are not any other methods to solve this problem-- a couple being unable to have children. Actually, besides cloning, there should be some other artifical methods giving birth to a baby. Personally, as the couple(both the male and the female) want to have children, the children should inherit the characters from both of them. Therefore, cloning is not suitable for them as the children is just similar to either Dad or Mum. They should get the gene from both Dad and Mum to "make" their baby and their baby just like the normal fertilized. It is more natural and safer than cloning a baby . | ||

Dear all 6B biology girls and boys, Thanks for your "on-time" opinions!! Work hard for your examination ahead. Your effort will be counted in my mind. For those late comers, I'll inform you on Monday and please state your role as well. Ms.Wut | ||

ReNa: I hate to say that I agree with Ball...and don't use 'yup' again please!!!! I think there are so many ways to keep the memory with her husband, such as reviewing his photo. Besides, what would happen if everyone try to clone a dead person? The population will increase and increase! The world may explode!!! | ||

Christy #6 If I were the wife, I won't clone my child. Cloning is a huge technology which the scientists had paid a lot of effort in investigating. It is used to achieve unseful things.Think about the situation now, cloning a person who has dead is totally useless. So why do I have to do so. This technology is not invented for my own willings. | ||
| 991912 Username: 991912 Registered: 04-2003 |
Christy: I would like to reflect my opinion towards Rena's idea. I totally agree with her. The world is not perfect at all. There are different kinds of people in the world. If all of them are the same, the world will become boring. The development in finance, architecture and other technology will all be inhibited. | ||
| 軒轅 Username: 991011 Registered: 04-2003 |
Teddy: Sorry to be late. For #6, i go along with Christy and Rena. Cloning is not a mature technology. It involve many difficulties and it may not be successful. Also, it is true that the world population is increasing. Cloning just lay burden on the world. | ||
| 軒轅 Username: 991011 Registered: 04-2003 |
Teddy: For #6, personally, i think the wife should not be permitted. Everyone is this world is unique. After cloning, will the baby be really like his father? No one knows. Also, it is only something lost and people will know how to conserve. | ||
| 991006 Username: 991006 Registered: 04-2003 |
I am Ian To Q7, i think that to clone the most individuals in the society is useless. Those who was successful was not born with the ability. i think that intelligence or other special skills do not rely much on genes. It just like the height and body weight , it is developing in the whole life. on the other hand, if agree to clone, am i going to agree that the world should have the most gifted people to live on only. | ||
| 991006 Username: 991006 Registered: 04-2003 |
ian: i agrre to pak sun. cloning human and change their genes, we dont know whether it is good or bad. however, i think that scientist should develop the skills. As the technology might be used in other areas. if we stop trying, the science will stop here. | ||
| 991153 Username: 991153 Registered: 04-2003 |
In response to Q7, i see no point standing on the foreside. Cloning of the most successful individual sounds really great. It seems that their outstanding abilities can contribute to society. but imagine, everyone is cloned from a so called"successful individual" and has the same abilities, does "outstanding" still mean "outstanding"? There will be no more competition, no more motivation which is a basic element of society. The balance of society upsets. By Zwing Young | ||
| 991153 Username: 991153 Registered: 04-2003 |
To: Shum Yue Hin From: Zwing Young Thing which has a light side has a dark side. Cloning, at least at this moment, is not mature such that we still cant see its pros and cons. what concern me most is not the technology itself, but the attitude of the people investigating cloning. Their thought towards cloning can make cloning helpful or dangerous, depending how they use it. | ||
