===Responses by scientists=== According to cloning specialist and physiologist George Seidel of [[Colorado State University]], cloning a human being would not be difficult if many people donated their eggs or offered their wombs for implantation of clone embryos.<ref name="Human Cloning's 'Numbers Game'"/> [[Lee Silver]], a molecular biologist from [[Princeton University]], noted the advantages that Raëlians had, as a pro-cloning religious group, in finding willing surrogates.<ref name="Human Cloning's 'Numbers Game'"/> A biotechnology company called [[Advanced Cell Technology]] had cloned human embryo cells for medical purposes, and its CEO [[Michael D. West]] said that the directions for cloning a human being were available in published scientific literature.<ref name="Human Cloning's 'Numbers Game'"/> Experts knowledgeable of the scientific advances in the field have noted that human reproductive chemistry is better understood than that of most animals.<ref name="Human Cloning's 'Numbers Game'"/> For this reason, they thought that a higher rate of success was possible in human cloning compared with animal cloning.<ref name="Human Cloning's 'Numbers Game'"/> Brigitte Boisselier anticipated that the work could begin on the preserved cells as soon as October, but there was no evidence that Clonaid had medical knowledge necessary for its success.<ref name="Human Cloning's 'Numbers Game'"/> There was no evidence that the Clonaid claim was more than a publicity stunt.<ref name="Human Cloning's 'Numbers Game'"/> No verification or evidence proving that a successful clone has been made.{{Citation needed|date=August 2022}}
