The latest issue of Wired Gregg Easterbrook has an brief article on why we should ” Embrace Human Cloning .” To call it an argument would be overly generous—Easterbrook is only given the space to compile a series of loose assertions. Still, such outrageous claims should not stand unchallenged so I’m thankful that Jimmy Akin took the time to respond .
As more people begin to shift to Easterbrook’s position, stronger refutations will be needed. But Akin does an admirable job of returning fire in one of the first salvos in the cultural war over cloning.
