That's because you assume the worst about my statement.

If they can one day take a sample of DNA, say from your blood, turn off all the coding that makes something HUMAN, and grow cloned organs(either inside pigs or vats or whatever) how is that discarding human life?

How is any of this similar to killing the disabled?

What make something human? We have spent the past 6,000 years debating that question. I know by drawing on past experience that the moment we define someone as "not human" very bad things begin to happen, not just to the so called "non-human" but on a deeper level as well.

We have mostly managed to get past that with the realization that we are all human. Now you want to "turn off" what makes us human. You want to remove the "soul" if you will. But the problem is that unless you know what it is you can not turn it off and I doubt that there is even an off switch.

So what you want is to create a human that is just different enough from you that you can justify killing it to yourself.

How does this connect to killing the disabled? Because I hear those same rationalizations from those who advocate killing them for their organs or using them in experiments.

They don't see them as human. You want to make clone that is disabled so it won't be human.
