I read about an incredible story in which a one year old Chinaman girl underwent brain surgery to remove a fetus that had grown, not next to her in her mother's womb, but in her own skull.

My question for Biblical scientists is, do we know if Jesus gave this second brain-dwelling twin a soul, and if so does that make the neurosurgeon an abortionist? Is the girl a slut for having a baby outside marriage?

Thank you for sharing this story, Sister Mary. As I see it, the Nuro Surgeon should be charged with murder. God put that baby in the other baby's skull for a reason. A doctor should not play God by undoing one of His miracles.

I'm just a humble country innkeeper but my understanding is that life begins at conception, therefore that is when God puts the soul in. With identical twins, the zygote person splits into two identical babies. The Bible does not specify if God provides an additional soul, if the soul is copied, if the soul splits in half with each twin only having half a soul, or if the soul remains with one twin and the other is soulless.


Knowing chinks, they'll probably cook it up and eat it.

It claimed that such a "twin" gets absorbed by its sibling – and I've read elsewhere that people with different eyes, one brown, one blue, say, were in fact two persons to start with. The same could apply to other organs with sometimes enigmatic outcomes when testing for transplants, paternity, etc., but the point is that if the tests done on those organs (or the brain twin in this case) demonstrate that it's a different person (the absorbed sibling having contributed the blue eye for example) then it must have its own soul.

Perhaps it depends on whether they were (or were going to be) identical or non-identical twins?

The real problem will be when the girl grows up and does what females are supposed to do, which is have babies.

Depending on whether her uterus is really her or her twin's, the children will be either her or her twin's. That will be a headache for the husband: will he be committing a sin by fathering a child with a woman who is not his wife?

I suppose that doesn't matter for Chinamen who are godless heathens destined to Hell one way or another.

Yes!

Yes!

What always highly annoys me in these situations is how people refuse to take responsibility. I have no doubt the 1-year-old slut having the abortion will claim it "is not her fault". This is the universal excuse for everyone heading straight for Hell.

The solution here, as always, would have been extremely easy: prayer! Matthew 21:22, John 9:31, Luke 18:27 clearly explain that there is no limit to what can be achieved with prayer if you truly believe.

So, clearly, both the neurosurgeon and the 1-year-old slut will burn in Hell for all eternity. A well-deserved punishment!

The left is forever telling stories of "impossible pregnancies." It concludes each of them must end in an abortion. No one ever investigates the origins of the pregnancies. Are there scientists and doctors on the left that can create these pregnancies for their own hedonistic purposes? My guess is yes.

These pregnancies all have fancy names trying to prevent we True Christians™ from questioning their legitimacy. We know, however, it is simple. There is the sin of sex. Then there is a baby.

You liberals out there, we are not falling for your stories of complicated pregnancies.

Technically this is a virgin birth therefore technically this means Jesus has returned. Time to bow down and pray to the little sucker. Please look away now if you're squeamish.

I am (obviously!) not a scientist, Sister Mary, but aren't all unborn babies parasitic? I mean, they live in their mothers' w*mbs and steal nourishment from them.

[MitzaLizalor]

The upshot of all these points is to challenge God's information about the human condition. Reading through The Psalms today helped me to understand more about sin and its limited power in the face of God's Perfect Love.

Psalm 139:15 My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.

The psalmist wrote that AFTER THE FALL but acknowledged that God was in charge and knew all about what was taking place, even though the requirement for two parents meant the malfeasance of sin must be transmitted. That was already dealt with by Christ's living blood, which for us, trapped in time, was then part of future history just as His return is part of future history now for either of us as it was then. Historical events are not sequential for God so that however much we try to force eternity into a timetable, events remain historical wherever they occur and how God makes us in the lowest parts of the earth remains within His aegis for us to accept, not challenge, so that His Salvation Plan can reach everyone before they die and relocate to HELL FOREVER.

That is a terrible thing to say! It is the equivalent of comparing a human soul to a tapeworm or a flea. God produce the last two for an ineffable reason but a fetus is there to become a Christian Soldier, much in the same way that our lives are to be spent preparing for death and the Life Hereafter.
(And I don't know about you, but my kids were still entirely dependent upon the Bathfire billions until they were 21 and could become directors of some subsidiary businesses.)

I'm no expert in these matters, but that looks like demon spawn to me. That isn't unusual with Chinese, because the "gods" they worship are actually demons, so Chinese women come into sexual congress with demons surprisingly often.

That child is an abomination onto the Lord and should be burned before it becomes the Antichrist.

Please clarify Brother, which one of the children do you mean: the one that grew inside the other one's head, or the one whose head was inhabited by the other one? Or maybe both, just to be safe?
