I'll read fifty posts like that one before slaving through through the presented argument. At least. Thank you.
No, really. Thanks.

Life value? Ain't one right? You'll live if you got the cash right? So tough.

Thats what happens now fuck head. You live to preserve your precious life. You fight the bastards tooth and nail to keep your balls. If I get my balls cut off, thats it baby, thats reality. Your sci-fi unreality and bullshit hypothetical crap doesn't change it. Reality: Hey Hannibal, we can grow you new balls.
Hannibal: Really?
Doctor: Yeah, it will cost you an arm and a leg...
You can't win your argument because its all RATIONALIZATION.

Actually, I thought the first part sounded like Barend's material.

You wanna live forever? Yeah, you can be a vampire...
Don't worry, I'll value my own life long enough to drive a stake through your heart.
The vampire metaphor's time has finally come.
Dracula was not a story about the past but the future.

Organ Shortage Fuels Illicit Trade in Human Parts
Brian Handwerk
for National Geographic Ultimate Explorer
January 16, 2004
Last month (December 2003), police in South Africa and in Brazil broke up an international ring trafficking in human kidneys. The racket also involved people in Israel—and possibly even further afield.
Brazilian police reported that dozens of willing donors were flown from that nation's destitute neighborhoods to South Africa where transplant surgery was performed on patients, including some from Israel. Recipients may have paid as much as U.S. $100,000 for their ill-gotten organs. Donors received a fraction of that amount, but a substantial sum nonetheless to those in desperate straits.
Though this ring is now out of business, the operation was far from unique. National Geographic Ultimate Explorer host Lisa Ling recently traveled to India to investigate reports of a widespread trade in organs illegally harvested from that nation's poor.
Kidney Village
Ling visited a desperate neighborhood known locally as "kidney village" because so many of its residents had illegally sold one of their kidneys. The practice is underground, but widespread enough that finding many donors was not a problem for the Ultimate Explorer team.
"They said that they received about $800 a kidney, which for them is a year's salary," Ling told National Geographic News. "It's a decent amount of money to them, but of course when it runs out they can't sell more organs."
Yet such proposals have found little popular acceptance in medical and bioethics circles, where most fear the exploitation of the poor and foresee the first steps on a slippery slope that leads to a dehumanizing trade in bodies and body parts. "I don't think that I've ever seen anyone speak representing an organization that would support such a system," Paschke said.

We live in a dark and shitty world. Not a new age utopia of peace. Your foolish ideas about "giving cloned parts" to the world are idiotic. Thieves and bad guys are everywhere, and it is INEVITABLE that this 'cloning' will be abused.
Otherwise, we should give Iran a nuclear power plant because they need electricity. If they happen to use it for nuclear weapons, hey thats not our fault...we live in a utopia...
Now, being you say your only 13, its understandable, you haven't THE FAINTEST idea what "RESPONSIBILITY" means.

The EVIL Emperor is obsessed with using cloning technology to prolong his worthless life. Go against that use_the_farts. Come now, don't you belive in George Lucas? Even he thinks cloning is bad...
