Hello All


I have read some of the posts concerning the clone ban. It is my understanding 
that the ban would

be for cloning whole humans, not for theraputic cloning. At least that is what 
the newspaper clipping
my wife give to me claimed. 


I do agree with Rudi's comment that it is disturbing that the religious sheep 
have so much influnce

over what happens to the rest of us. Not to worry however because there are 
three reasons why

cloning, life extention, nanotech, and genetic engineering will prevail over the
religious sheep.


1. History has proven time and time again that progress will happen no matter 
what. Nothing, including

religion has stopped it.


2. We live in a mostly capitalist world. Capitalism is a competition to get to 
the top. And with globalization

America is the team to beat. If America bans cloning you can bet some other 
nation will begin research

in an attempt to position itself within the global economy. This is will be true
with all controversial tech.

And you can also bet that these nations will be looking to hire American 
scientists. When break throughs

happen from this research and the rest of the world sees the benefits, no 
explanation needed here.


3. Politicians are dirty rotten scoundrels. They are aware of the possible 
benefits of some of this research.

You can bet that eventhough they have a ban or whatever, they will have some top
secret pet project.


I do suggest contacting your senators and letting them know that you are against
the clone ban. However

if it does pass do not worry because progress will prevail, history proves this.

Long Life

Joseph
