Technology has revolutionized the production of goods and services to ensure people live happily. The need to use modern technology has enabled people to save time, energy and get quality products and services. This discussion explores the future and impacts of cloning on modern societies.
This is the production of individuals through laboratory processes that involve combining the male and female reproductive cells. Cloning gives patients and doctors hope that organ failure will be managed through transplants. In addition, it enables scientists to develop species that have the desired qualities. For instance, the production of genetically modified vegetables, fruits, and cereals has helped farmers to get breeds that mature faster and are more resistant to diseases. Moreover, this practice alters the genes of individuals, and thus it is easy to reproduce animals and plants with different traits.
On the other hand, cloning violates the teachings of religious beliefs that regard God as the author of life. In addition, it is very expensive, and this means that developing nations cannot afford them. Therefore, they have to rely on developed countries to help them, and this promotes dependency. Moreover, it does not respect the sanctity of life and gives people the power to destroy living things. Cloned people will not have positive self-esteem because they will be discriminated against by those born through natural means. Artificial reproduction violates the rules of nature that encourage sexual relations as ways of reproducing new individuals.
Technology is important in modern societies, but people should be very careful when adopting new practices. Good technology should be economical and not violate the moral and religious beliefs of people. There is hope that people can use technology to improve life if they reduce or eliminate its negative impacts.
