    Cripes on toast, if I hear another fruitcake talk about "SOULS" in a discussion on cloning, I'm going to puke. WTF does that even mean?!

    He's a news flash for you from the mid 19th century: Your consciousness exists in a electrical circuit called a "BRAIN", inside your thick skull. The "soul" is a baseless concept created by ignorant people before they understood human biology. We're all fortunate enough now to live at a time where this kind of information is available to us, however there are still an amazing number of people who choose ignorance and tripe over truth.
