hi Tish, ..well if they dont believe in the soul, I dont know what their ideas on that one would be..
Personally, I thought it a load of crap from the get go..and I see the journalist who was working on the story is now having his doubts.

NEW YORK (CNN) -- The science journalist who organized a team to evaluate claims of the birth of the first human clone has suspended his review and now says the announcement by Clonaid, a company tied to an unconventional religious sect, could be "part of an elaborate hoax."

POETIC JUSTICE

Whatever Sells
Just when you think things aren't so bad,
That now's the time to be a Dad
And put some meaning in your life
And, in a small way, soothe the strife
That makes us feel so all alone,
They have to go and make a clone.
Or so they say. We can't conceive
That scientists who all believe
Some aliens from outer space
Breathed life into the human race,
From labs within their UFOs
Could go where no one boldly goes.
Is this the way new life begins?
Poor Baby Eve, conceived in sins
Too many to enumerate,
Will suffer just like Adam's mate
The stigma that's attached to those
Who undermine our godlike pose.
Much like her namesake, Eve makes clear
That virtue's just a sham veneer,
And lurking in the garden's weeds
Are demons that temptation feeds,
Emerging from the serpent's den
As breaking news on CNN.
Who needs a daughter, or a wife,
When you can buy eternal life?
So much for all the wise debate
Of stem-cell cures and beating fate.
Disease must wait when money talks:
Let's clone Ted Williams for the Sox!
