RESEARCHERS FIND BIG RISK OF DEFECT IN CLONING ANIMALS

This is from 2001, I wonder what advances and improvements have been made. Or is cloning banned?

What is human cloning used for? ( same question)

Therapeutic cloning would involve cloning cells from a human for use in medicine and transplants, and is an active area of research, but is not in medical practice anywhere in the world, as of September 2019.

I always thought it would be great to clone our body parts like hearts, liver, kidney, store them in your own personnalized freezer, and when you need one its ready to go. Maybe this will come true. And who knows maybe some people go underground with this, and already have had transplants, Take a look at Kirk Douglas, hes 102! Just a thought, who knows? I better copyright this idea, I've has this on my mind at least 35 years. Yeah well, It's already been done. I'm too late.

Lets just hope the cloning business goes all well, we wouldn't want zombies or freaks on our hands, and don't want any one to suffer pain. These are the things I think of at night.

This is off the topic of Clones, but we must be careful with Artificial Intelligence too AI, I hope they know what they are doing. We don't want robotic programmed humans on the loose, like the sci-fi movies.

Monkeys Have Been Cloned, Paving the Way for Human Cloning
By Stephanie Pappas January 24, 2018 Animals

I dont like the sound of this. I'm all for cloning body part for humans but not whole humans.  I hope they dont clone whole humans, that would be horrific! Cloning whole humans, and rip out their body parts when needed, that's horrible.

I hope they can come up with a way to just clone our body parts from one of our own cells, like pop our kidney cell in a microwave, and walla, you got a cloned kidney. This is a cartoonists perspective. Maybe this is a basic concept on how to do this, who knows?
It would be great to have more time to do the things you love, an extra 50 years would do me fine.

I have a hunch people will be able to clone their own body parts, I'll predict in the next 15 years. It sounds crazy but they are already cloning falopian tube and other parts already. Lets just hope they do it in good fashion, not like a horror movie.

Its coming, I have a hunch, cuz science is developing new things all the time. Just so they are very careful, dont want zombies walking around or anything like that.
