Reproductive Cloning: Good or Bad?

Reproductive cloning though does not give you the exact person will give you identical genetics. Its probably hard to get the exact person when they are reared in a different time and setting. I personally don't agree with reproductive cloning, I don't understand why you would want to clone someone genetically, it won't be the same person you are cloning.
There are a lot of people who don't see anything wrong with human cloning like Dr. Preston Estep who thinks it is ok to clone humans and that it may be able to stop aging. After all the reading I've done it seems this is the liberal view of things. They see it as a choice instead of a chance.
The people who don't agree with reproductive cloning are conservatives, they see this as unethical and wrong. When cloning animals approximately 30% of them are born with defects and die prematurely.
It is against the law to clone a human right now though it is done on animals and I hope that will always be against the law. I think that at times people tend to take all this technology for granted. I am all for DNA engineering to cure disease and help make medicines but when you start talking about cloning humans or embryo's I don't agree! If it won't give you exactly what you had then why even do it? And having a choice to change your baby, why not just be happy that you were given this baby in the first place?
Knowing that scientists still don't know all there is to know about human cloning and that they have difficulty cloning other mammals makes me feel like they have a long way to go and that maybe if it ever does happen I won't be around to see, though it may be interesting I see it as being morally worng!
