Right and wrong

Is there always a right and wrong in every issue? Is there a truth about every issue that can be traced back to the Bible? I was thinking about human cloning, is it right or wrong? God creates human life wouldn't it then be sacred? The Bible says that "all life is sacred". So if all life is sacred, wouldn't the human species be the 'most sacred' ? I would say yes, based on the fact that we are the only life form that has an eternal soul. So if God creates us, he also creates our soul. If scientists clone a human being, it would look like a human, walk like a human, talk like a human and think like a human the only big difference is the cloned human being would have no soul! The scientists may be able to create an embryo by cloning, but they cannot create a soul. So the creature that they clone would then be like a pig or a rabbit, a creature who lives and dies with no afterlife. Now some questions about the new cloned humans; what could we use them for? THey could be raised on a farm to harvest the organs, why not, if there is a shortage.. it is not inhumane to kill them, they aren't real humans. If you killed them you couldn't get charged with murder because they would have no civil rights.. they could only have the same rights as animals! They could be raised for servants.. bring back slaves.. why not? They are like mules now with no souls.. they are souless aninmals in human form... So to answer the question, Yes cloning is wrong! No matter what benefit it would be to the human race, God created humans and we are messing with what only He can create. So there are people who believe that it would benefit the human race to clone.. there were also those who thought it would benefit the human race to wipe out the Jews, but just as they were then.. they are WRONG!
