An Ethical Set of Questions

Must we clone other humans? Given that our souls are a Part of God, will clones have one? How about conscience?

Hmmmm, food for thought. Will clones have souls? I doubt it.

I do not think we will ever get there, but what if we do? How will we get the souls? Will we have to pray for the angels to send them into these bodies? What power would we have? None. This is very very deep. This is weird but I follow you supposedly, yet none of your poems are being listed lately under poets I follow so I had to look you up one at a time. Very curious.

Hmmm, that's bizarre; I don't think that the syllable counter is working perfectly, either. Thanks.

Wow! Scary that the clones could be like us but without balance!

Someone once said to me; "it's the soul that animates the body"...if that's true then...what would be animating clones? Thanks

Thanks so much, Line; these are questions that bother me because I don't know if the right people are considering the ethics of them or not.
