Maybe this's a stereotype. But I am so curious of it.

Cloning people is a weird and incredible issue. and it's very controversial.

But I know maybe people can benefit from it. for example, when both your kidneys become unavailable, your copy (the cloned one) can contribute you one of his/her kidneys, then you can re-live your life.

What do u think about clone? do you want one?

I must admit...it would be scary Razz

what purpose would cloning yourself serve?
the body produced might be of the same make-up, but the way you develope would be different, your 'parents' wouldn't bring you up the same, you'd interact with different people, have different life experiences... what i'm getting at is that even if you body and mind were cloned you wouldn't be the same as you are now. besides you weren't meant to live on earth forever... you'd be playing with a greater power's plans. You know who i'm talking about!!! you should read a book called "Purpose Driven" by Rick Warren
