I was just watching the director's commentary to the movie, The Island, and he mentioned something I was thinking for a while. Are clones MORE then the sum of their parts or are they just a collection of parts put together. From the movie, and his comments, he talked about the clones having a social conscience, or a soul of a sort. But some people I have talked with look down on my thots, as to immature. If you have seen the movie, there was a part where the lead character sees a motorcycle for the first time, and says, "I don't know what that is, but I have to get one." Now that was not part of his programming, but was a part of his sponsor's (purchaser's) makeup.
So, are clones just a collection of parts, or is their whole more then the sum of their parts?
This thot was also entertained when someone was trying to clone Kirk so they could use his clone to take over the Enterprise. He solved it by getting his clone to be racist against Spock, or something like that.
Other thots in this line are also mentioned in Blade Runner with Harrison Ford as well, plus other shows. Any thoughts?
