Human Cloning

[EBC]

Scientists are able to clone animals, although still imperfect. Technologically, it’s possible that one day they could do it to human beings because human and animals share similarities biologically.

Catholic Church strongly condemns that idea. But imagine if someday ethic and morality are set aside and human cloning is realized; does that mean that human can create another human being’s soul?

Likewise even though we readily see how dropping nuclear bombs on cities of innocent people would be gravely offensive, we know that God does not “refuse to cooperate” by suddenly suspending the laws of physics that permit such bombs to detonate. Clearly, God chooses to respect the laws of physics he has established, and likewise he remains beholden to the powers of biology that he himself has set in motion, even if it is true that those same powers can be used for offensive ends by man.

Apart from purely miraculous interventions, which appear to be quite rare, God does not step in and break the humanly-initiated chain of causality which allows sinful actions and evil choices to play out with all their consequences. He invites us to make moral and upright choices ourselves, so that evil in our world might not spread further, but he doesn’t actively prevent us from doing evil by abrogating physical laws or refusing to ensoul embryos.
