As soon as Dr. Ian Wilmut made a breakthrough announcement that he, and his team, had successfully cloned an adult sheep in 1997, the salience of the controversy about cloning humans and genetic modifications in the human genome virtually erupted (Rose, 1999). It became clear at this point that it was feasibly possible to conduct a range of scientifically assisted reproduction such as human cloning for example. There could also be a mix of genetic information bestowed on a child. For example, family planning could resemble something along the lines of ordering a new car. Parents could theoretically choose the various features that their child gets from each parent. For example, a parent might want their child to be male, six feet tall, with brown hair, blue eyes, courteous and respectful, with above average intelligence, and a propensity for intellectual investigation on a high level. Soon, with the miracles of science, such an order could be possible in the near future.
