"Since each of us was copied at some point from a normal person, there must be, for each of us, somewhere out there, a model getting on with his or her life" (139). I don't understand, they are fully aware of the fact that they are clones, but they don't care. So here's my question: If these people are nothing but copies of other people, then are they really people? I get that yes, they are physically human beings. But what about the spiritual side of things? Are they just a shell of a person with nothing inside? Kathy later goes on to describe different theories of who these people could be (babies, parent's age, elderly, ect.). But I have a different theory, I'll be honest, if I lived in this world, I don't think I would be ok with a clone of myself walking around. So what if they were copied from people who didn't have an option and wouldn't be seen on a daily basis? Say, maybe people on death row, or in jail? Just an idea...
