| | biology - Human cloning |
 | | An extreme but noteworthy goal of therapeutic cloning is to create complete hydranencephalic, anencephalic or otherwise brainless or braindead bodies for receipt of transplants of the brain (or consciousness, somehow) of the original donor. |
 | | Interestingly, advocates of 'downloading consciousness' of human minds (with or without the physical brain) into robot bodies (such as Marvin Minsky) are rarely subjected to the intense criticism reserved for Raelism, perhaps because the robot idea is viewed as science fiction, while the technology of whole-body transplant seems a more near reality term. |
 | | In December 2004 Dr. Boisselier, claimed in letter to the UN that Clonaid has successful cloned 13 children, however their personalities cannot be revealed to the public in order to protect them. |
