While watching the film, this song by Zhao Chuan always echoed in my mind. The film The positioning is love + science fiction. I watch it purely as a science fiction film, and it can be called a good soft science fiction.
The 28-year-old woman Kathy has lived in a rigorous boarding school since she was a child. Helson, Tommy and Ruth They are her two most important friends. Under the warm sunshine of the English countryside, the boys and girls spent the most romantic moments of their lives, and also gained sincere friendship. However, one day, the boys and girls were exposed to Teacher Xi got a shocking news: Haiersen's ultimate goal is to train them as organ donors, they must give everything selflessly until the flower of young life withers. At the age of 18, they They were able to get out of Haiersen and go to boarding schools in various places. The sad fate is like a shadow, and they will experience more in their short lives...
The love story in the film is very literary and also makes tears, but the most thought-provoking Or the issue of captive human clones for organ donation.
Science has always been a double-edged sword. It is true that cloning technology, like atomic energy technology, can not only benefit human beings, but also cause endless harm. But the essence of "technophobia", It is the fear of misuse of technology, not the fear of technology itself. Humans have always believed that clones are as terrible as the devil in Pandora's box, but the tragic life of clones in the film reveals another problem to us. That is, how should human clones be treated and how to characterize them.
With the advancement of technology, many countries have voiced voices to relax restrictions on therapeutic cloning. Although traditional ethical and moral issues have always been restricted, the emergence of human clones is believed to also It’s just a matter of time. In the film, human clones are kept in captivity on a large scale, equating cloned human beings with pets, poultry, and experimental products. The difference in the way of cloning human embryos cannot deny that he does not have the status of human beings, and there are more extreme cases. It is extremely cruel to think that clones are not human but a species, just like robots.
So are human clones considered human? My personal view is of course human. Because human cloning research only breaks through the tradition of human sexual reproduction and uses asexual reproduction, the purpose of which is to create human beings as intelligent as human beings Even if the embryos are produced in different ways, the physiology of cloned human beings is completely indistinguishable from that of human beings. Therefore, both from a general perspective and a legal perspective, cloned human beings are human beings.
The cloned human beings in the film show us a tragic life, they are alive The purpose is to make organ donations to the recipient again and again, and finally be terminated. This extends to the issue of how to treat cloned people. The cloned people are only copied genetic characteristics, blood type, appearance, fingerprints, genes, etc. However, affected by many factors in the acquired environment, social attributes such as thinking and personality cannot be exactly the same. And no matter how the cloning technology develops, it can only clone the human body, but not the human soul. Therefore, the so-called human cloning is not A complete copy of a human being. Therefore, we should not simply regard the cloned human as the shadow of the original body, a spare tire, and because there must be an age gap between the cloned human and the original human being, we should regard the cloned human as an independent, unique A person. All the rights of a natural person, they should have. The right to life, the right to health, the right to property, the right to work, the right to education, and even the right to vote and marry, etc.
However, due to the special reproductive model of human cloning, Emotional cultivation problems, identity and social problems in the growth of clones. There are many problems that are not easy to solve, all of which require long-term and in-depth thinking about the entire society, concepts, and institutions...
"What I am not sure about is that we and the recipients Whether the life of the person is completely different, life will end, and maybe no one really understands what happened to him, or feels that he has lived enough!"
It may take a long time before clones appear, or they may not appear at all. The appearance of clones, then let the clones live on my behalf...
