Dolly the Sheep, 25 Years Later: What We Learned About Cloning, Ethics & the Future #cloning #woollymammoth #extinctanimals #extinction https://www.gsnsp.com/dolly-the-sheep-legacy-cloning-updates/
We are able to clone living beings
but how exactly does a created body possess a free will?
Is that not a contradiction?
Or is free will generally a myth?
It makes not difference how the body is formed.
Whatever possesses it are forces that are never what we thought we are.
That's why transhumanism is nonsense.
How do you upload something that isn't even individualizable

9 things that would've been seen as conspiracy theories 20 years ago but are real today
"Scientists make embryos from human skin DNA for first time
US scientists have, for the first time, made early-stage human embryos by manipulating DNA taken from people's skin cells and then fertilising it with sperm.
The technique could overcome infertility due to old age or disease, by using almost any cell in the body as the starting point for life.
It could even allow same-sex couples to have a genetically related child.
The method requires significant refinement - which could take a decade - before a fertility clinic could even consider using it.
Experts said it was an impressive breakthrough, but there needed to be an open discussion with the public about what science was making possible."
