Three strong pros that are commonly used in the great debate over cloning include: “Cloning is a technology that would allow infertile couples to have a genetically related child.”, “Cloned human embryonic stem cells have the potential to cure, or assist in the discovery of a cure, for just about any disease or disorder you can imagine, not to mention save diminishing species of animals.”, and also, “Human cloning is not inherently wrong, cloning, human, child, cloned, potential, parents, out, couples, been, about, technology, species, people, genetic, cure, clone, cells, animals, public, order, lead, genetically, even, believe, worldbookcom, stem, since, serious, related, possible, media, life, infertile, genes, embryonic, each, diseases, disease, children, cell, being, allow, wrong, way, warfare, very, two, society, slavery, simply
