The next step was to clone actual humans, but before experiments could be carried out, pressure started to build on the scientists because people doubted if cloning was ethical and morally correct.

Cloning should be made legal for at least human organs, as a way to stop so many people from dying while waiting for a new organ transplant from people who die from natural causes (cloning facts website).

"More than three thousand died in the year 2001 waiting for a kidney transplant alone. Thousands more also died waiting for livers, hearts, and other vital organs, and the number of people dying each year is increasing at a gory pace" (Thornton, par.1).
