Is cloning morally right why?

This is an ethical question and is based on personal opinions.There are many types of cloning and two of them are reproductive and therapeutic. Usually when people think that cloning is ethically right, they are mostly focusing on therapeutic cloning which is only creating a whole new single body part from a single cell. People who generally think that cloning is wrong are focusing more on the reproductive cloning which creates an entirely new organism.Both sides have their pros and cons. For example, therapeutic can create new body parts for a sick person and save their lives, using the same person's cells. But reproductive cloning may cause many problems such as people have too similar DNA and letting new diseases arise.My personal opinion is that cloning should be allowed for therapeutic reasons only but should be controlled so the research does not get out of control. If people were able to learn how to clone someone or something, this could cause multiple issues for humans and other species.

What are the ethical issues related to cloning?

It depends which species we are talking about. Cloning of animals and plants does not raise any new ethical issues. Cloning of human beings (which so far has not been done) raises new ethical issues. What is the legal status of cloned people - will they be granted all the same rights as other human beings? Will they be mass produced to be used as soldiers, slaves, etc.? Who will raise them? Will they be genetically modified? If so, are they still people? And so forth.
