Human Cloning—An Introduction

The future of the human race must not be left in the hands of pragmatists, egoists, or any other group of human beings who have lost their sense of God. The sanctity of human life is at stake. This question is not open to debate, poll results or political compromise.

The need for Congress to hold investigative hearings on personhood and to declare personhood at fertilization has never been greater or more timely. The worth and value of each person from the moment of his existence needs to be recognized immediately in order to prevent further violations of human dignity.

Dr. Harold Varmus, director of the National Institutes of Health, has stated his strong opposition to legislation that would put limits on cloning research, which he feels may prove beneficial. Varmus believes that human cloning research should be allowed under Godless guidelines.

Varmus and various panels of scientists have invested in themselves the authority to manipulate and dispose of human life at their own will. If our government allows scientists to usurp the authority that belongs to God alone—the creation of human life—America is surely destined for the path to self-destruction. Human cloning is an evil step that should never be taken.
