Dan,
1. The Establishment likes to have these 'topical' controversies so that the general public does not focus on the really important issues.
2. At the end of the day, there will be some country and some doctors who go ahead and clone humans anyway.
3. Religion is responsible for most of the conflict in human history, but I respect others beliefs.
4. I just wish religious folk would stop trying to force others to share their beliefs. I'll find out if what I believe is true once I'm dead, but I'm not keen to find out.
5. If God did exist, then the XF would have at least 250 BHP.
