Even in the best case, it will not be an EXACT copy of the original, because there is something called mitochondrial DNA that comes from the egg donor (because it is free floating in the cell and not in the nucleus whose DNA is destroyed). Just like Dolly was not an exact copy of the sheep that was cloned...

Still, this is proof that research into cloning cannot be stopped by conservative religious mania. When was the last time prohibiting an area of science ever stopped scientists developing it anyway?
