1

A collection of eggs are placed in a glass dish.

2

Donor sperm are combined with the eggs.

3

The fertilized eggs are then encouraged to develop in a nutrient solution.

4

After a period of time, certain of these fertilized cells, based on sex, robustness etc. are selected for implantation.

5

All of the brothers and sisters are flushed away.

Cloning is a different bowl game.

In "Reproductive cloning" the DNA of the donor cell is isolated and injected into a human egg cell that has had its own DNA removed.

The intent is to create a new individual with the identical characteristics of the donor.

The little guys (or gals) could be used as an "organ" farm.

An individual could have a clone of himself created as a source of spare parts in case anything should go wrong with the original ones during his or her lifetime.

9 out of 10 clones die in the process.

"Therapeutic cloning uses a body cell instead of a sperm cell in step two above. The process is called "Nuclear Transfer".

The embryo is created for the purpose of harvesting its undifferentiated cells. These cells can then be teased into a variety of stem cell lines.

The little guy (or gal) dies in the harvest.

"Cursed be he that taketh reward to slay an innocent person. And all the people shall say, Amen."
