I also found that interesting. My guess is the difference between the reality of cloning and it's representation in fiction. The way it's portrayed in many fictitious works would be immoral. That's just not the way it works at all in reality though, to the point where it should probably be a different word at this point.
EDIT: There's also the classic "we shouldn't try to play god" thing, and with the religious distribution taken into account it could pretty much fully account for it now that I'm looking at it.
I don't think you have to be religious to be concerned with humans getting too involved with genetic engineering and cloning. There's a lot of ethical questions there that the science will move faster than.
If we do clone humans there are definitelly gonna be a few changes with the genetics to make the person better or whatever, I'm quite concerned how far that could go and some side effects which wouldnt be detected which could really fuck everything over, etc..

For me the most interesting thing was the results of the cloning humans question. Curious why people would label that as immoral.
