Question:
May human body parts or materials be cloned morally for prosthetics, transfusions, or other medical procedures?
Answer:
Cloning that does not involve the destruction of human embryos or the creating of a human life is an acceptable scientific procedure if done with legitimate intentions.
If we were able to clone someone’s failing organ using a process that did not create another human life nor destroy one, then such a medical procedure would be licit. The same would be true with a leg, arm, hand, etc.
