From the Paper:

"Well, you look in the mirror and you see yourself, or look at your brother who was cloned from you. It would be nice to have someone exactly like you, but there are certain things that would be very chaotic. How would having a clone be chaotic? Billy had a brother named David, and David was the clone; and David found out he was cloned from his brother. David felt that he was inferior because he was not naturally created. The individuality that David is entitled to possess is shattered. So, David thinks that since he was not naturally resurrected he would take his life. Does the poor child have to face this life even if it was not his choice to be born by DNA from his brother?"
