semperfionaDiane Rehm's show this morning was about the FDA making a ruling on the
safety for human consumption of food from cloned animals. (Could that
sentence be any more stilted?) Interestingly, the panelists said that
Americans seem to consider cloning of animals to be immoral. I don't get
it. If it's moral to eat animals, and it's moral to breed and farm them
for food, what difference do the methods of reproduction make? I can see
making a different moral judgment on either of the first two premises,
but I don't get the third.
