Would you raise your own clone?
 
Not a child you had, not a child you adopted. Your own clone from your own DNA. Would you raise it from it's artifical birth onward?

Logic The Goonie 04-04-06 02:19 AM

Hell no, at least not now. People would think I'm weird as fuck. =/

La Cosa Nostra 04-04-06 02:21 AM

Do I get a welfare cheque for it?


If so.......................................maybe.... .... = /

LMFAO, that was actually funny.

Terumoto 04-04-06 09:04 AM

I would raise the clone.

Teach it everything I learnt while I was alive so it knows for next time.

It would probably end up murdering me.

Young_law 04-04-06 09:18 AM

hell yea, and make sure it dont make the same mistakes i did

Young_law 04-04-06 09:18 AM

but what made u ask?

Tempa 04-04-06 09:23 AM

I would. I would raise him and mold him into everything i was plus tha stuff i missed out on. He'd be perfection. Muahahaha.

Nynth Degree 04-04-06 09:33 AM

Yeah, and then in 20 years my clone can kill me out of jealousy.

How old are you now? Your clone's DNA is as old as you are when you clone yourself. So, if an 80 year old man cloned himself, the "baby" would have 80 year old DNA with telomeres cut so short, he'd live only 10-15 years.

Good thing I'm not even 20. They'll clone me in like 5 years, so I can have an epic death somewhere in my middle ages.

Yea...It's one of the ethical problems facing cloning today. Every time your DNA replicates, the ends of the strands, called telomeres, shorten. After years of DNA replication, your telomeres experience this "damage" many times over. Molecular Biologists believe this shortening of your telomeres is what causes aging, body deterioration, organ failure, and eventually death. Otherwise, there's no reason why people have to die at 70 or 80. Think about it. There are species of turtles that live over 100 years on average. It's all in the DNA my friend.

Nynth Degree 04-04-06 10:06 AM

Yeah, but the bright side is we'll be the most badass clone duo since the Fetts.

I'm sorry. I didn't know that since you posted online I'm not allowed to have any biological knowledge at all.

But that doesn't matter right now. All I care about is the badass duo my clone and I are gonna make.

No need to get defensive...I just wonder why you'd go out of your way to act like that's common knowledge...

Are you telling me right now that you knew that information I just typed?


I can tell when you're lying!

I don't really see how I made it seem like it was common knowledge. If you know something, and I know something, it doesn't mean everyone else in the world knows it.

That didn't answer my question. Are you saying you knew that before I typed it.

And, again, I know when you are lying!

Yes, I knew most of that before you typed it. No I didn't know 100% of it, and I really don't give a goddamn if that gives you the satisfaction you're craving right now. Go find someone else to argue with over petty shit like this.

:nono:

If it's so petty, then why pretend you knew 100% of what I said? Oh, and your clone would SUCK!


I'm done.

Nynth Degree 04-04-06 10:27 AM

Um, I just said I didn't know 100% of it...that doesn't seem like pretending.

And you still never told me how I made it seem like common knowledge in the first place, but I guess you're done now.

La Cosa Nostra 04-04-06 11:58 AM

Ay 9th man..

Its best to just ignore him.. He does this type of shit all the time...

Lmao. Shut up, dude.

I probably wouldn't want another one of me existing in the world. That would just be weird as all hell.

Daubs 04-04-06 01:47 PM

I knew about strands n shit, and how the cell replication is asexual mitosis.

But thats about it.

N i unno, we doing about clonin in biology at the moment.

But, was I not right? 9th admitted he didn't know 100% of what I was talking about.
That was my point...But

Your point is?


And I know I'm not the only one educated...I'm just the only one who makes sense.


*HATE ME NOW*

Actually...Mitosis isn't cell replication. It's DNA replication. Cytokinesis is cell replication.

I don't hate you, but you starting to complain about petty stuff. Is it THAT serious?!

I don't think so, and you are not the ONLY one to make sense.
Don't give yourself that much credit.

No, that doesn't prove shit. You said I made it seem like it was common knowledge, which you still haven't told me why.

All I did was say it would be cool to be a badass duo with a clone, and you started acting superior.

My ability to piss people off by being RIGHT is amazing. I said you didn't know what I was talking about BEFORE I said it. At first you said you did. Then, when I said "I can tell when you're lying," you changed it to, "Well, I didn't know all of it."

^^^^There is no point here...just confirming that you attempted to paint a picture that wasn't true. The truth is, you only knew SOME of what I was saying, not ALL of it.


It ain't that deep...lol

^^Acutally, I made that statement to mirror how ridiculous your statement was about me being "the only one with an education."


Psyche majors know it...It's called mirroring.

Nynth Degree 04-04-06 02:05 PM

Um, not knowing the exact facts you're stating is a lot different than having knowledge on the subject you're discussing.

Find where I said "I know exactly what you're talking about".

How does his response make any reference to your post being common knowledge? I think you looking beyond his words. All he said was "Yeah" in response, whether he knows what you said 100% or not is NOT given in his response. That's what's called petty. You just picking a fight, and it isn't serious...

By you not acknowledging that you didn't know it when you quoted my response implies that you knew exactly what I was talking about.

*philosophy is a motha*

If you made a reply talking about how to make fillet mignon, and I replied like "Yea, not only that, but I like making pot roast," that CONNOTES that I know how to make fillet mignon.


If you didn't quote my thread, then why would I randomly pick you to say, "You didn't know that." <--------------That'd be ridiculous!

However, if I were to quote your reply about making fillet mignon, and I didn't know how to make it, I'd say, "Word, I had it once but I've never made it."


^^See...That way, you know that I'm not fronting about making fillet mignon when I don't know how to.

That's not philosophy, that's merely a misconception on your part.

What does Apexx have to do with you, me, or this discussion? I couldn't care less about Apexx's infidelity. That's between him and God. If you remember, he called me out on that by making a thread aimed at me. He started it. God will finish it. Now, remember, YOU BROUGHT THIS TOPIC UP.

PS..HOL UP..>WAIT...You think I'm phased by Apexx disagreeing with my beliefs?
