      I think cloning a human is certainly unethical.

      Making ‘tailored replacement cells’, if you could, say from stem cells from the umbilical cord, wouldn’t bother me, though.

      I think that human cloning is unethical, even if the process was perfect. Making cloned human cells to match a single person to help cure a disease would be fine.
