Explain this, please. Or at least post links to clinical studies which demostrate this.
agreed.
maybe if we replace the term "cloning" with something more user-friendly there would be less arguments against it. u see the word "cloning" and you associate it with certain things, u see?
of course im personally against all factory farming techniques so it doesnt even affect my life.

i disagree. there have been numerous reports that ive read that state that this method is not foolproof, or humane. something like 1 in 7 of the cattle are not killed instantly but instead are just really fucked up..
