I was thinking about Dolly sheep
A spirit can't be cloned, I reckon. so who inhabits the clone's body?
I believe in spirits, even of animals, so how can you justify that? Can you?

Just as a newborn baby receives a soul, so would a newborn clone. Do identical twins have trouble receiving souls? Or identical triplets? Whether man conceives, or a sheep conceives naturally or through the borrowing of Gods building blocks and the intervention of man, the result is still worthy of a soul in God's eyes.

Hmmm.
Interesting hypothesis.
If it were a cloned human, i truly doubt itd be 'born' without a soul or consciousness.
Maybe God will implant one from his 'draw pile' ?
I mean, it says in the bible, ( if you believe in that ), that there are only so many souls to go round , so evidently even God recycles.
Theres even the theory that the brain is just a reciever, and that our consciousness comes from somewhere else and is tramsmitted to us.
And if we are worried about AI developing a conscious, then i dont see why an engineered organic being cant.
After all, the body is just a meat sack for our consciousness....so...... what's the difference?
There is also the conspiracy theory that we we were an engineered species eons ago...amd we seem to have one.
Also, rememeber some twins are identical genetically, and they have their own identity.
So i cant see why not.

@caPnAhab i don't think spirits have an appearance like us, from what i understand.
Its hard. Some relgions just say it floats out and you have an afterlife in one place Others say that to get that afterlife you have to 'evolve' your spirit till it loses all ego. Which by then it'd have no identity connected to the physical world.
And plus, its just an energy force or something , a 'light' being so to speak, so maybe our spirit or consciousness is just some fuzzy glow globe 😂

Identical twins are clones. They all have different personalities though. The more they diverge in time the more their different experiences shape them differently.
