While cloning is definitely a big deal scientifically, it should not be a big deal ethically. Cloning is just another method of giving birth. Period. All this talk about recreating another Hitler or Einstein is baloney.

While genetic characteristics such as height, hair color, or sexual orientation may mirror the original, the thoughts and ideas of a clone will not. They are unique to each person. We have nothing to fear. I think one day we will look back and laugh at what all the fuss was about.
