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?

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.

^beat me to the punch. Now he's talkin about some ol "he started it! he started it!" smh...

If someone really wanted to discuss how he cries about Apexx "coming at him", they'd just link him to any of the numerous "goodbye threads" he's made, and atch him evaporate out of this thread liek he does in every thread he gets shut down in.

I'm not big on the idea of having kids..well..I like the idea of having kids..just not in the insideous world we live in that's only getting worse on the daily. Diseases are skyrocketing, cost of living all over the world is going up, education is getting worse, and the amount of sickos popping up randomly is a whole issue in it self. Molesters can be anyone and any kid can come to school with a gun and blow away people randomly, and that's just to name a few. I wouldn't want to subject my offspring to a life like this.

But I was thinking..man...if a child was born with all the inate abilities I have, would that change things? would I raise it? After meeting my dad for the first time when I was 18 I realized that I looked sounded and even my body language was exactly like his though we were thousands of miles apart, like I was his clone, so I figured an actual clone must be even more similar.

The main traits he'd posess is the hunger to read, and the ability to sense and see, just like my dad had and like I had and he'd be a complete beast by age 15. Man, if I had access to the books to answer my questions at my most formative years that I have access to now....wow.

wow.

But then you think "man, what if he rejects this info and lifestyle completely and just becomes a flunkie". You can't put all this pressure on someone to be what you want them to be, they still have to live their own life - it's so many variables.

that's why I asked it.

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.

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...
