We already have organ donors for transplants and clones (twins, triplets) so I don't believe this will happen. What is more realistic and a current controversy is whether it is moral to clone cells for research. Some people believe cells are people who should have 14th amendment due process rights. Surely the 14th amendment would protect clones if it would protect cells. -----Original Message----- From: Lindy Ashford Sent: Wednesday, November 30, 2011 1:16 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: Theoretical question re morality of testing Yes, it would be worse, and I would not accept it.
