Cultivation

You sow the seeds,
You till the soil,
You spray germicide,
protect the crop,
You add manure,
tend carefully to the small plants.

But you made one mistake.
The seed had 46 chromosomes, and ALAS, a brain.

You never wanted a brain, but had no choice. That’s the package. Take it or leave it.

You try control,
the brain resists,
You blackmail,
it blackmails back.

The crop refuses to be cut. You remind it of all the tending you did. It’s not impressed.

You curse the crop,
It goes away,
Tries to find why it exists,
There is really no answer.

You wonder what you did wrong.
It wonders what it did wrong,
There's really no answer.
The problem was the brain,
You didn’t need a brain.

Edge cases:

You cut the crop,
the brain dies,
you are happy,
the crop is not capable of being sad.

You try to cut,
the crop hits back,
You die,
The crop is still not happy.

You burn the crop,
anger satisfied,
the crop is dead,
better or worse cannot be said,
the crop fails,
Your honor hails.

Rare case:

You like the crop,
decide not to cut,
The crop likes you back,
gives you the fruit on its own.

What happens next:

Recurse(crop).

I cannot respect you farmer, you cultivated me so you can cut me off.
I cannot forgive you farmer, you uprooted me and threw me out when I refused to bear fruit for you.
I hate you not farmer, it gives me nothing.

I wish to farm,
but not to cut.
I wish to tend,
to see it grow.
The brain will dwell,
I do not mind.
Or so I think,
will know with time.

The law of leeching

Let’s say there is a plant which produces 100 units of energy a day. The plant requires 70 units a day for its own maintenance and 30 units to grow more leaves and branches. On the plant is stuck a parasite(leech) which also eats up its produce.

Now if the leech eats up 30 units a day, the plant never grows and both the leech and the plant stagnate.
If the leech eats more than 30 units a day, the plant will not have enough to maintain its current state and will gradually wither. Along with the plant the leech also dies.
If the leech decides to eat 10 units a day, the plant will grow. After some time, it might be producing 300 units a day, consuming 210 and having 90 spare. The leech can use all this 90 and stagnate or use less and have even more food later.

The moral of the story? Well, there are lots of analogies.

The business/economy of a country is the plant. The government is the leech. The message is clear. There are many who would want to eat away the so called "rich" and later starve to death by their own folly. They only survive because of the refusal of the "rich" to die.

Cloning

Before I deal with the ethics of cloning, I would want to bring forth my views on some other matters first which would play a part in my arguments regarding cloning.

What is killing : Thousands of chickens, cattle are killed everyday to serve as our food. Every breath we inhale brings millions of microbes into our air passage an lungs which are all killed by our immunity. But the self appointed guardians of morality will comfortably eat away all kinds of cows and pigs everyday but raise a big hue and cry if a small bunch of cells with 46 pair of chromosomes is used for making the life of another human perpetually better.

They are very quick to shout about those 4 cells that were killed, but very comfortably forget about the thousands of blind people who live each day in darkness. Those people could have normal vision with the help of cloning. A fully grown and conscious person could be saved from liver cirrhosis if we direct our morals more towards the good of the living people among us than towards those 4-10 cells which have no brain, no consciousness, as are as good as vegetables in their current state.

The term "designer babies" has been coined as sarcasm over the improvement of human race using genetic methods. Why should one individual who, by luck became good looking and intelligent be the only one to bear the fruits of it while all others work twice as hard and still can’t get the same quality of life.

After "god", "morals" is second most effective term invented to justify criticism and hatred towards the progressive.
