Exploring Judaism 

Collections: R' Amsel Welcome to What Does Judaism Say About...?

Description

Although cloning has been successful in animals and is currently forbidden in humans, the ‎technology is still in its infancy. If cloning can eliminate human diseases through gene manipulation, ‎should it be permitted or encouiraged? If it can produce super athletes or super-geniuses, should that ‎be allowed? What is the relationship of two human clones - brothers, parent and child or none of ‎these? Would reproducing a human without sex even be considered human? This podcast will analyze ‎each of these dilemmas from a Jewish perspective.‎
