Carbon copy canine reignites ethical debate over human cloning – Yahoo! News

SEOUL (AFP) – The world's first cloning of a dog has raised concerns that scientists are one step closer to replicating human beings, despite the breakthrough pointing to treatments for currently-incurable human diseases. A group of scientists from Seoul National University on Wednesday unveiled their furry creation, a black and white Afghan hound named Snuppy that is genetically identical to its three-year-old "father".

This is great news. It's only a matter of time before this is done with people. Are we humans afraid that we might not be so “special” after all?
