The possibility of cloning-human beings challenges Western beliefs about creation and our relationship to God. If we understand God as the Creator and creation as a completed act, cloning will be a transgression. If, however, we understand God as the Power of Creation and creation as a transformative process, we may find a role for human participation, sharing that power as beings created in the image of God.
克隆人类的可能性挑战了西方关于创造以及我们与上帝关系的信仰。如果我们将上帝理解为创造者,将创造视为一个已完成的行为,那么克隆将是一种违背。然而,如果我们将上帝理解为创造的力量,将创造视为一个变革的过程,我们可能会发现人类参与的一个角色,即作为按照上帝形象被创造的存在来分享这种力量。
