After reading "Sociology and the New Technology: ‘So, You Want to Be Yourself?’ Cloning and the Future of Society" on page 154,  choose a position to defend that will either promote cloning or denounce it. You cannot take a middle of the road answer that defends it in one regard and denounces it in another.

Answers will vary and there is no wrong answer, only a poorly defended one. Students supporting cloning will point to couples who cannot have children, making organs available for transplant, and extending the quality and length of life. Opponents of cloning will object to it based on moral and religious grounds, the hazards of an imperfect embryo and what to do with it, the rise of medical elitism by those who can afford cloned organs, and the unknown dangers of playing God. It is not too extreme to compare the classic Frankenstein film to cloning. Dr. Frankenstein meant well and his theory was sound, but because of simple mistakes he created a monster.
