For those of you who think you know everything.. Includng scientists.. Your knowledge is but a tiny spectacle compared to God's knowledge.

As for me, anything created by the fusion of a sperm cell and an egg cell, that grows to become human and breathes air and can think, WILL HAVE A SOUL. Whether cloned or not (as clones are still created by the fusion of the sperm and egg cells).

you should read previous posts before posting your ignorance. no sp.erm cells are needed in cloning.

No human has ever been cloned, so what's the point of the question?

IF introduces a lot of questions based on unstable probabilities and answers can start from the commonsensical to the totally absurd.
but let's see. If I have a soul then it is probable that as long as clones can breath, think and have self-awareness,then they must have a soul. then again, because we are IF'ING what is a SOUL. is it a SPIRIT? is it one's cumulative mind-consciousness within the ethereal entity (SPIRIT) or is it Life-giving essence that causes the body to LIVE. IF so then it follows that clones too must have SOULS.

good morning. very interesting topic. the church (christiandom) has been known to oppose totally anything, theory or Principles that goes against its teachings (the bible) as a matter of fact science has been basically the biggest threat to christianity and religion entirely. why u might ask, simply put, because science takes the mind beyond boundries as opposed to religion, science asks "why" and "why not" science bases itself on finding priciples and making calculations and finnally science stands on logic, not faith. BUT with all this in consideration, everything points to only one undeniable direction,a devine hand, an ultimate intelligence, call it an unseen force if you like or a super controler and inventor made dis all. seek knowledge, be a part of the sincere and pure fruitfulness of his doings and you will be closer to him/it.

What I can't understand is why this supposedly superior being is hiding from me and why I should waste my precious time looking for him. If he needs me, he knows where to find me. I have more important things to do than searching for a superior coward.

According to the Bible, Eve, was a clone. Permit me to explain. Adam was created, and Eve was made from Adam's "rib". If Eve, had Soul, clones do.
My personal esoteric experience, in soul travel and Astral projection shows that no living thing exists without the "animation force". So clones, by virtue of life, is solar, infact anything, that is alive, whether created by GOD or gods, have souls, its the essence of their life.

Both exercises are deliberate bilocation exercise base on your spiritual orientations but OBE do occur occasionally due to body imbalance, shock or other physiological issues.

About the bolded, its deep. Soul Travel is beyond the planes of matter, Astral is just within the Astral Planes and sometimes interplanetary.

Any negative side-effects experienced (yet). It has always fascinated me - there are phenomena seemingly outside the realms of science. I love to research these things first hand
Re: Do Human Clones Have Souls? by OnlyRebel: 1:58pm On Jun 07, 2012
The problem with the materialist/atheist is that they fail what they need comprehend in their argument about existence and fallacy they aclaimed of creation. Why can't they get all their material synthesised from the laboratory instead of extracting these things from the beign created by God. May I ask you this: "Does the materials for cloning comes from living cells with souls or non-living cells or dead beign". The explanation for the need for the souls to be present in the cloning beigns be it animal or human. Mind you, the faith you need to believe there is creator called God-Allah is far less than the faith needed to prove that God does not exist.

Hey,hey! Who are these atheist that invented the internet? This is what you believe. So internet brewed out from the knowledge of these atheist. Get life my brother, kindly argue constructively. Science and technology is the domain of man as envisioned in mind and translated in brain, the theatre of existence as programmed by God. Knowleged world as we have it today is a bank that was made rich by man-male,female, theist, atheist, white, black, young and old. Read wide and consult sincerely before making a claim or what have you.

Have we ever thought about the awe and wonder of creationg. Have we thought about the Expansion of Universe and the Discovery of the
Big-Bang. How matter and materials that make up the universe and our world are fined-tuned in most perfect agreement and unbelievable unison. The Big-Bang point to the fact that matter in the universe was compacted in a single point-mass that had "zero volume" because of its immense gravitational force. Our universe came into being as the result of the explosion of this point-mass that had zero volume. The truth is that something that has zero volume is tantamount to saying that it is "nothing". The whole universe was created from this "nothing". The materials and the soul will live together in whatever living cell until its apointed time to die. Be it cloned or not cloned. God is great.
Re: Do Human Clones Have Souls? by bibina: 2:57pm On Jun 07, 2012
Clone beings dont have souls, a human being is a three-fold being, he has a spirit which is the cosmic source of life linking him through the kundalini to the Divine Intelligence, the One in Whole, the spirit is free and pure, it belongs to the Divine Intelligence, it is the life force; again he has a soul which feels, hears and sees, the soul is unique to every entity, the soul feels pains, the soul is afraid, the soul is your inner being, the Soul is corrupt,the soul cannot be destroyed in the temporal realm but only the Cosmic can decide where the soul journeys to after physical death, the soul can be sanctified and be saved against etereal damnation, it can be saved through purgatory to attain sainthood; and finally the Body which is the ornament, the body is like clothes we wear, the body suffers death and suffers corruption, the body can and will always decay, the body can be destroyed in the temporal realm, the body does not transcend this realm, the body can be cloned and used by spirit beings to disguise as original owners.

Ecclesiastes 9:5~ "The living are conscious that they will die; but as for the dead, they are conscious of nothing at all."

Soul is our consciousness. Therefor a living human clone has a soul...

Cloning can also serve as spear parts for us.. ie. Liver, heart, and other organs.

Well, God the Most High made me believe he creates from nothingness which scientists have proved with Big-Bang Theory. Or what will you say about the Einstein Law of relativity-the non-absolute nature of time and space that conforms that our world is indeed created. Your response if...

Not for (idle) sport did We create the heavens and the earth and all that is between!
If it had been Our wish to take (just) a pastime, We should surely have taken it from the things nearest to Us, if We would do (such a thing)!
Nay, We hurl the Truth against falsehood, and it knocks out its brain, and behold falsehood doth perish! Ah! woe be to you for the (false) things ye ascribe (to Us).

the concept of soul just like many other theological concept is just a creation by man to conceal his ignorance. each religion(even denominations within a religion) has different theological view and concept about life and they are often delimited by the horizon of their discretion.It is very saddening that at this age and time people are still wallowing in abyss of ignorance to still believe in this illusion called soul. get shrewded peps, and enjoy life while it lasts

Why have you confused youself still brother? Yes, enjoy your life really, till its appointed time. What leaves body when a man is dead. This is but your soul, it's a great sign from your Lord. But mind you, soooo many things you can't explain about yourself. In college biology, we were made to believe that our brain is sound and light proof-that light and sound does not reach our brain. Then how do we see and hear. You are not suppose to see and hear if the light and sound can't read this very important organ of your body. Not only soul that is awe to reason about but human existence in its entirety. Kindly ruminate over all these things. Yeah your soul, once again is real and eternal. The God that originates existence from nothingness, is sooo much capable to recreate all matter, space and time for Judgement day. Take heed your existence is not by accident!

I believe you also follow a religion, but this is a call to reason. And really ready to have a discuss with you. Above all, I profess a believe in God and truth of His creation.

Don't be confused as the 21st century science prove the truth of creation in perfect order of creation.

In the words of Albert Eistein;
"Well, a priori [reasoning from cause to effect] one should expect that the
world would be rendered lawful [obedient to law and order] only to the
extent that we [human beings] intervene with our ordering intelligence...
[But instead we find] in the objective world a high degree of order
that we were a priori in no way authorized to expect. This is the
‘miracle' that is strengthened more and more with the development of
our knowledge".

The above is from one the greatest and brightest minds of 21st century. If he could have such a submission, may be your knowledge of state of science in your age in beyond you. You should be amply inform about where I'm coming from. I want to use science that you all claim is anti-creation as a tool for a discourse in this regards with you. That there is creation and creator(God)
