cloning = "copy and paste" ?

To most people, cloning is just another scientific stuff of the usual "copy and paste" of living creatures, even so some may think human can be cloned as well. It is normal for most people to think that cloning is only like photocopying, such as you put a plain paper into the photocopy machine, push some buttons, then a warm sheet of newly carbon-printed paper comes out! Honest to say, that's what some people think. Although people are right about the simplest logic of cloning, the term is not just anything simple as that, as cloning collectively refers to processes used to create copies of DNA fragments (molecular cloning), cells (cell cloning), or organisms. Most people are deeply curious if human cloning is successful at current time, so one day if you walk around town, you see two Michael Schumacher walking past you yourself, then it is solidly proven that human cloning is successful!!! But beware, the facts of human cloning may not be as simple as you think. Most religions have their own views towards cloning human, some object and some do not, and more importantly, human cloning generates inevitable crime as well. One day, if some cops approach your house and put you under arrest for the charge of commiting some crime, don't be so surprised, it maybe your clone that commited the crime. You know what I mean.

To conclude, cloning is not just as simple as you might think, whatever things may happen in anytime, in this world.

peace~
