Would You...

Cloning is the new black. There is a Korean company that will let you remember your loving pet by bringing them back. As Fox reports: "RNL Bio on Friday announced it would work with Seoul National University scientists, who created the first cloned canine, "Snuppy," to offer customers a re-creation of their deceased pet for $150,000."

To pay $150,000 dollars to bring back an animal that may look the same, but will defiantly have different traits, mannerisms, and disposition. As Mark mentioned, our pets are the way they are because of the experiences they had. Just like people, I am who I am because of the things I have done. So why would anyone want to do this? This, again, is what is wrong with the world. Lets take a look at what else could be done with 150 thousand dollars - Homeless vets, abused women and children, Diabetes, Cancer, any disease, many humane societies and much, much more.

Although I truly don't believe this, many people tell me that we are a Christian nation. We are supposed to help our fellow man (as long as they are the right color). Why is it then that we take money that can help people and clone an animal when there are so many in the world today that need homes.

Along the same thought, there is a company that will preserve your pets until they are ready to be cloned. ViaGen is the company and for $1,500 they will send a refrigerated biopsy kit to your vet so they can take a small biopsy of "fido". If "fido" has dies, you will only get five days to get a biopsy. After that, he is really gone.

What would you do?
