Has Scientific Technology and Developments Gone Too Far

For a question like this, everyone would have a different opinion. Personally, I think that new scientific achievements have been a great step forward for man, however, even though now everyone is excited about things like cloning humans and being able to teleport, there would still be a risk that it may all go too far and turn from a good idea for helping people into something that could change the world into a bad place if the technology got into the wrong hands.

One of the main scientific breakthroughs over the last few years has been the ability to clone animals. Only a short time ago, scientists were able to clone a rat that had been dead for thousands of years. This all sounds good and first expressions are that the world would be free of hunger and endangered species wouldn’t have to die out. However, if scientists want to bring back animals that have already been extinct for a long time such as dinosaurs, we could be in danger. In my opinion, dinosaurs died out for a reason, and that reason was so that man could evolve. If you think about it, humans wouldn’t have existed if these prehistoric animals were around and bringing them back from the dead would need serious thinking. As a scientific experiment to see if it could be done and to learn more about dinosaurs, I don’t think that it would be a big deal to clone a few, however, I don’t think that they should be the type of animal that you find in your local zoo.

On the other hand, as we all know, if it is possible to clone an animal, it should technically be possible to clone a human. I am totally against this idea of having someone that looks like you and thinks like you or the idea of bringing people back from the dead like the rat, as I think that it would destroy our earth by overpopulating it and would mean that humans, in a way, would be immortal and that is very wrong because it would mess up the natural lifecycle. Even though I think that cloning an entire human ...
