If Mankind created clones would they have souls?

[Mentor]

Ok well by sould I mean like will they act the same and have the same wants and desired?

Will they be just like identical twins?

Or will there be some other weird similarity they will have.

Identical twins are clones, perfect genetic ones in fact. the only difference is nature does it, not us.
But are wants desirers, morality etc is all influenced by upbringing and exsperince as well as the defult genetics "/ in most cases clones wont even look the same phisicaly after a while "/

wud really depend what you define as a soul would really depend whether its yes or no.
but they are still going to be a person just a copy of someone else who can still live their own life

Personality is something you get from nurture not nature.

[Lubricant]

The clone would just be made by copying your DNA and your thoughts, feelings and memories and not in your DNA so they won't be copied into the clone thus making it different.

[Mitch4?]

Clones would be exactly the same, until they suffer enviromental difference, for example. The clone might hang around with some chavs, and the other one might not be allowed out. therefore the clone could like bling and booze etc. where as the other one wouldn't k.

Also LOL at people spelling souls and soles

[Kymux]

That's a rather broad question to ask.

Personality is something you get from nurture not nature.

Id dispute that, id say its a mix of the two as certain personally traits can be linked to genetics, although granted the majority is down to nurture "/
(testostorne levels for exsample can make large diffences to someones personalty and thats got nothing to do with no nurturein)

Yes, (if you believe in souls, which i dont) because theyre human. But they wont have the same personality as the original.

Took the words out of my mouth..

[Kymux]

Did he actually extract those words ?

I'm a man of faith I believe.
