Reasons for cloning cells

• There would be no danger of rejection of the transplant because the organ's DNA would match the patient's DNA exactly.
• Another individual would not have to experience pain, inconvenience, and potentially shortened life span in order to donate the organ.
• The procedure would save lives which would otherwise be lost waiting for a transplant that did not come in time.
• Therapeutic cloning can produce stem cells which may be used to treat disorders such as diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, and Parkinson's disease.
• The possible benefits if therapeutic cloning is successful is phenomenal, replacement organs would become freely available to the sick patients and the patients that are dieing because they are in need of a certain type of organ. If scientists become successful, this would most likely take many years of research before the first usable results will be obtained. This means that countless amounts of lives would be saved, and would also greatly increase the quality of life of many others.
