well all the meeat taste the same....what would make a difference if
there cloned......geez idk though...we might all have twins if we eat cloned meat.....lolz....no guy want to be payin double the child support!.....ladiez it was a joke!....and no im not paying child support because i have no kids.... =)~ |

hmmmm? i dont know, they say "you are what you eat"
|
|
|
|
well then again...i dont have twins.....
|
|
|
|
what is the purpose of cloning for meat??
|
|
|
|
good point...

I don't like the idea of cloning at all, think it is playing God and
should be left alone. Don't like them mixing plant and animal DNA either like mixing tomato DNA with cold water fish DNA so that the tomatoes will handle cold weather better. I am not terribly religious, but think this is messing around in an area that should be left alone, crossing animal and plant DNA, etc. |

marie55 i have to agree with. we are not GOD. so why play the part?we
have NO right doing GOD's part at all. |
|
|
|
i agree....let God do what he do.

Wait, I never thought about that....I can Clone my "Own Meat" I can
litterally last ALL night |

Well, if we clone enough wouldn't price of meat drop? Which mean beef
and such would be cheaper and more accessible across the world. All those little third world countries that struggle dramastically would have a fighting chance. Which could decrease world hunger a bit. Of course this is if money hungry coorperations are a little less hungry. I'm 100% for it, if playing God will make up where the original lacked will help mankind, I'm for it. |

I think we have kind-of been doing (the idea) for a long time,
by only breeding the best of the best together to TRY to have perfection in ONE!! But, cloning on raised BEEF stock, or PORK, lol we could have better BODY MASS for MEAT, as to thin, or fat in the meat.. BUT, in doing all of these WE ARE "CHANGING" that species!! And ALL of future BIRTHS with ANY that were CLONED. NOW, WHAT I "DON'T" KNOW ABOUT CLONING IS, DO WE ---FULLY KNOW-----"IF" CLONED MEAT INJESTED BY US HUMANS OR ANIMALS CAN HAVE ANY LONGTERM AFFECTS LATER IN US???? LIKE does a cell in a cloned animals meat, make us prone to contract a cancer in our furture?? Has the US. government even performed ANY tests to these affects?? That would be MY ONLY CONCERNS!!!! |

ill use a cow for instance.They take the DNA to create more of the fast
producers.Say a milk cow,allready gives real and natural milk.They are just making or copying more of the cows that give more milk.Beef,same thing,copy more of the ones that grow faster and get bigger,with less fat on them.There for they eat less food there self.They are also ready for slaughter faster.Cant believe they would change anything in a human physiclly.When they start adding chemicals or drugs in to them.That is when physical changes start to happin in humans.Cloning plant and animal togather,never herd of that happining.I think cloning animals is ok. |

In a sence cloning on the farm has been going on every sence farm
animals have been pinned up.We will put this bull,"which is very big and always healthy"in the pin with that cow,"which produces the most milk"and let them make a new one. |

A lot of good feed back, thanks guys. As a fairly typical libra, I like
to hear & understand different view points on a subject especially one as controversial as this. I must admit Im not totally comfortable with the idea of eating anything thats been genetically modified / mutated. When the decision has been made by our "trusted" F.D.A. and the products stamped "approved" it will be out of our hands to decide. Consumers aren't going to be told if their meat is from a clone. Just something to think about.... |

The animal-cloning that dairy breeders are talking about is much
different than the "cloning" process we've heard about in laboratory-mice and such things which are really DNA-extracted and DNA-implanted experiments. The "cow-cloning" is just a mechanized form of what we already do now with selective-breeding, and artificial-insemination. In otherwords, we're going to milk the bull of all his potential, and replicate and inseminate using that same bull's genes. Not much beyond current ways. So, I'm ok with this. NOT ok with DNA-extraction/insertion/embryo-manipulation. |

Vibel - cloning won't make a difference on the price of meat or the
availability of it. The government already pays farmers not to produce meat and milk and crops to try to regulate the prices of the crops. This has been going on for years. I still don't like the idea of playing God, and crossing animal and plant genetic material. Just my thoughts. |

O rly? Well if thats the case nuts to me then. I'm still in favor of it.
DNA-extraction/insertion/embryo-manipulation that is. |
