Breaking News - United Nations Voted for Total Ban on Human Cloning

The UN voted today for a comprehensive ban on human cloning. It comes
after a two year negotiation and confirms the defeat of the French and
German effort to allow for human experimental cloning

“This is a powerful message to the world community that this morally
questionable procedure is outside the bounds of acceptable
experimentation,” said Austin Ruse, president of the Catholic Family and
Human Rights Institute, one of the main NGOs involved in the negotiation.
“ This should encourage similar bans in legislatures around the world
including in the US Senate,” said Ruse
