Other reasons include, the  hazard of mass-produced human  existences, strange, twins, and  concern of the, bizarre, concept.\nPence counters Kass, pointing out that even  inwrought conception and birth isnt risk-free. There is absolutely no  elbow room to create an organism, that will  batten down zero health risks in its life.
