1. Many ethical thinkers have called for a worldwide ban on all forms of human cloning. Do you agree with the this argument? Could we realistically allow therapeutic cloning but ban human cloning?

2. What are the ethical questions raised by cloning? And is there any moral difference between applying genetic engineering techniques to humans and applying them to animals or plants?

3.Do you think that we are good only because we are afraid of the consequences of being bad? If we could get away with being bad (say, by becoming invisible), would most people be bad? Or do you agree with Socrates that it is always best to do good, period.
