The Island

The Island.... you're going to the island, transported to the world's last paradise, yes, you have been chosen. Lincoln Six-Echo, one of many flawfree-made inhabitants that dwell in a carefully controlled, if not perfectly designed, environment. Like all of his peers, he hopes to be chosen, by means of lottery, to go to the world's last paradise - the uncontaminated island. But he unsteadily questions every single existent in his very own dwelling place, only to discover that he was, like all of his peers, made to provide possible damage of his 'origin'......

A scientific movie that shows to be contentious, having been directed by Michael Bay and starring Ewan McGregor and Scarlett Johansson. For those who have seen the firm, did anyone of you question the core issues of the firm? What if, which are likely, human clones are to happen? Where does the moral lie? The equation of this issue cannot be less than politics, religions, sciences, and atheists etc.... any mankind you can think of to date.

Is it 'legitimate' to clone humans and later on transplant the required parts of the body to its counterpart? Answering this question, there are further considerations to be taken into account. Let's assume there is a God, a set of principles is held in faith so that we are made to believe that our creator is God but no one else. Cloning human beings is anything but sin where one goes beyond God's plan. It is even more controversial when a scientist 'harvests' a cloned being where s/he literally commits 'murdering'. An atheist may just not disagree more....

What if there is no God and we are only abandoned kinds? Does it feel 'ok' when a scientist 'makes' and then kills off a being to save a baby with tumour? Or let the infant cease to live and replace the cloned one....... one another? No easy answer. An ideal situation could be to 'creating' the counterpart if and only if needed, by approach to imprinting no memory to the human clone... basically, gives them no chance to live. Make and harvest. It is probably one of the disturbing scenes that many would go against the idea of human cloning. That is, creating a bunch of literally human beings who eat, sleep, game, and socialize etc.... then you take back their lives for the purpose of others'. But again, there will be no 'them', absolutely nothing had it not been their creator - scientist. Is it just a matter of the timing as to when to kill off the being or should there be no human cloning altogether? Think carefully for those who stick with the latter.

It gets pretty familiar to the daily news now, what is the difference when one aborts and puts a baby's life to an end just after giving birth? Former is legal while the latter isn't..... a matter of when again?

We will find out what is going to happen about human cloning for the coming generation.... no matter what, it does not seem to be under our power to get the final say.
