Ethics of Human Cloning
[ send me this paper ]
A 4 page paper discussing the ethics of human cloning. The paper treats therapeutic and reproductive cloning separately, and illustrates the applicability of the philosophies of Kant, Mill and Rawls. There is little ethical support for reproductive cloning, but therapeutic cloning is less clear. One author states that we should not avoid a technology simply because we do not yet have it completely identified. Those awaiting transplant organ availability likely would agree. It is left to the rest of us to decide what is or is not acceptable in our society. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Ethics of Human Cloning
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page paper discussing the ethics of human cloning. Stem cells used in therapeutic cloning are most plentiful in placenta and aborted fetuses, but they also are available in every adult. Therapeutic cloning does not seem to be as much an issue as is the origin of the stem cells from which cloning can be accomplished. All ethical issues should be served through adult donation of stem cells, in the same way adults now donate blood and organs. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Ethics Of Physician-Reported Syphilis
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. The moral obligation Jeff's doctor is compelled to uphold falls under support of deontological ethics, a theory that espouses one's moral duty in any given situation. As a physician, he is torn between his purported duty to warn and the obligation to protect doctor/patient confidentiality; however, the moment Jeff's actions caused other people to become unwitting victims of his indiscretion, the deontological obligation overruled any professional accountability the doctor may have had. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
