Another issue is loss of life. When time arrives, (and it will) that we have unbiasly accepted fate of actual human cloning, individuality and constitution of what is a "real" human will enter into field of morality. If a loved one passes on, will we simply replace him or her with a biocreated human counterpart or twin? And if so, who is to say that individual characteristics of this artificially-created person will be exactly duplicated, personality-wise? Then there's standpoint of human rights. Will these mimic humans have equality as do naturally-born ones?

Ethical factors have not been conscienciously studied by scientific community. Bio-intervention is expidiciously volumizing evolution of mankind. At which interval do we acknowledge life as mere science? Or do we accept our individual fates as human beings, appreciating our growth in spirituality? The question is - what is to become of soul of our life when we realize that death is nonexistent? Something to ponder.

What began as an oversized "brain" made of wires, metal and countless conductor boards, has evolved into modern PC. We have at last designed perfect mechanism to do our bidding. It thinks for us, supplies and stores information, and now with more and more technology, we can even speak to other peoples by means of a computer translator. The small screen that sits atop our office counters, our workbenches and our personal desks at home has become brainchild of society's modernization, and has revolutionized way we do and encounter most things.

Although it is just a machine, it has served a wonderful purpose. Through use of computer equipment, time is no longer a challenge. Messages, tests and reports can come back to us in a matter of seconds. Physicians, technologists, mechanics, archeologists, biologists, and so many other career paths have endless uses for this manmade tool. It has rewarded us richly with its knowledge, as we have enriched it with ours.

But, question still remains: At what point does tower of Babel (figuratively speaking) collapse? When has humankind reached its boundaries and at what interval will all be lost because of modern technology? The world is our oyster - but what we must never forget is that pearl of an oyster is created by disease. Just a thought to ponder.
