M: Oh, you mean the wife is going to give birth to her husband?
W: Right. The child will be born in two months and the couple won't feel sad about having no children! How great!
M: But isn't that strange? How could the father face another self! You see, they'll look exactly the same! And if they had decided to clone the wife, she'd be giving birth to herself!
W: Well, isn't it charming to live your own life again? I think human cloning is beneficial in many ways, such as providing remedies for new incurable diseases, prolonging one's life, and so on.
M: That's very good, but what'll be the relationship between the parents and their cloned copy? What responsibilities should people take for their own clone? And what if the child falls in love with his own mother one day? As I see it, human cloning is unethical and must be prohibited!
