| Message | The benefits of research into cloning are so wide and varied that failure to allow professional scientists to work within regulation is to deny hope to those suffering from Parkinson's Disease, cancer, Altzeimer's and many other conditions. Economically allowing Dolgar to open a branch of science banned in other countries would allow us a competative edge, and morally we have a duty to help those in need and in desperation. |

| Message | yes, but it says the cloning of human beings, which i believe to be the human being as a whole. I will change the title to suit this defintion. |

| Message | Stem cell research should be advanced, cloning of human beings is still risky ground and therefore would not have the backing of the Neo-Liberal Party. |

| Date | 03:28:26, August 11, 2005 CET | From | Dolgar Libertarian Party | To | Debating the Ban on the Cloning of Human Beings |
| Message | Does stem-cell research--- research and possible cloning of fetuses (feti?) count as cloning of human beings? If this bill disallows that, we can't support it, because there is no proof that a fetus is alive. If it only bans the cloning, overall, of living human beings, we can support it. |
