My personal reflection about cloning technology (correct my spelling if i am wrong)

Well, to me cloning technology is not really that bad, if we feel lonely we can clone a person just like us to talk to us, and also to share our sadness(since we are the same person i guess...........) with our clone.The advantages to cloning is that we can finally consider the possibility of immortality.Once we die our clone will replace us and we will "live on forever".This will spare us from the pain of losing our loved ones......

However, the is also a bad side to cloning ,who knows whether the clones are harmless or not?Many fear that our clones may murder us and take over our identity( very creepy indeed).Some also fear that our clones may replace the human population in the end.As a human dies, he or she is replaced by a clone which takes over the host's life, this clone may gain access to everything the host owns.

So can we really trust clones?My personal opinion is that the idea of clones is not really safe, why make more of us when there is already enough of us?
