Those pesky scientists, they really outdid themselves this time. As if cloning Michael Keaton wasn't bad enough, now they went and cloned Snoopy. Score one for smart guys in glasses but if you ask me, they're barking up the wrong tree.
Pet cloning is no doubt just the first step in a series of steps leading to the eventual cloning of humans. That is what I'm really afraid of, but more on that later. While I recognize the magnitude of a scientific achievement this large
The world's first cloned dog is quite a scientific achievement, this much is apparent. But isn't it also a little dark? Think about it; man's best friend...forever! Wasn't this the plot to Pet Cemetery?
Look, I realize that pet cloning isn't that serious. If wealthy families like the Ottos want to pay a cool $155,000 to clone a dog, that's there prerogative. Their rover do-over doesn't affect me personally. What does affect me (and everyone else for that matter) is what comes next: Human Cloning.
Human cloning is basically Pet Cemetery gone wrong. When you try to bring back your cute little blond son from the dead, don't be surprised when he slices your achillies with a scalpel. Could you imagine a world in which humans were permitted to clone dead relatives?
Human cloning is an eerie thought. I can think of 10 scenarios right now signify why human cloning is a path we shouldn't go downin no way affects me personally. But What scares me is what comes next: Cloning.

While the historic scientific achievement of the world's first cloned dog is quite incredible, the feat also brings up a lot of interesting ethical questions. There is something inherently dark about cloning humans or animals in my opinion.

I went back and looked at articles from previous years and found a few interesting things of note. One article, from 2005,
