No. Every living organism on the planet is supposed to come into the world in one of a number of ways and cloning isn't one of them. It's not the way things are supposed to be and it smacks of playing God. Speaking of which, I do believe in God but my objection isn't based on religious grounds. Cloning simply strikes

I knew all of those!

If it tries hard enough, then yes.

If you're counting non-permanent deaths, there are plenty of great ones to choose from in "SG-1".

I neither want nor need them but the sentiment is appreciated.

Well, I feel disgust at what he did and don't forgive him. My heart just isn't that big.

I'm heartbroken that someone that I don't know, didn't even know existed until now and will probably never meet doesn't think that I'd be fun at parties.

I would hardly call feeling disgust at someone taking another's person life "holding a grudge." In any even, the benefit is to, first of all, society by keeping someone dangerous in prison and, secondly, to the family of the victim who have some peace of mind in knowing that their relative's killer is paying for what

My main reason for wanting them to be locked up is to protect people. Keeping them locked up may increase their suffering but I can live with that frankly if it means that the majority of the populace are kept safe. Keeping the majority of the populace safe to a greater degree would naturally cost more money and, in

I don't just feel it for those I like but there is a limit to it.

I have compassion for those who deserve it. Murderers don't. For me, it's as simple as that.

No sin that I've committed involved an innocent person dying as a direct result of my actions so I think that I've the moral high ground here. I was raised to believe that some things can't be forgiven and murder was certainly one of them.

Keeping murderers locked up for the rest of their lives sounds like reasonable and effective justice to me as does helping those who committed lesser crimes to readjust to society. As I've said in response to others, some deserve to be rehabilitated and others don't. The system does fail the former category all too

I was addressing this particular case, not the system. Like I said to my second response to Eridani, some people deserve rehabilitation and the system should be reformed in order to help them. Church doesn't.

Well, I'm Irish so I don't pay American taxes. Even if I did, I'd rather pay taxes than have murderers on the street. If he had done something like tax fraud (which obviously wouldn't carry nearly as heavy a sentence but I'm speaking hypothetically), I'd agree that he'd deserve to be rehabilitated and re-educated in

Hate to point out the obvious but if he hadn't killed someone, he wouldn't have been in prison in the first place. The consequences of taking someone else's life are on his own head. The system is flawed certainly but I've no sympathy for people in his situation. If he was never released, that would be better for

You could say the same about the murderer profiled in this article. I really doubt that "do unto others as you would have them do unto you" was at the forefront of his thoughts when he stabbed that poor man, Unlike him, I've never taken a life so I have a clear conscience. If I had killed someone, I'd deserve to spend

Can't say that I really care that he couldn't adjust to life in the 21st Century. Because of him, an innocent person didn't make it into the 21st Century.

You should do one of these for unmade "Doctor Who" serials, though most of the ones that I know about sound pretty cool.

If the Q-Olympics episode had been made, it'd probably have been worse than any TNG episode other than "Code of Honour", the incredibly racist one from the first season.
