Quote# 42861

Children created in "test tubes" and "in vitro" in laboratories are deprived of the spiritual union of man and woman that exists when normal children are created. Like the fabled monster in Mary Shelley's original novel, these children are created without spiritual union and have no soul.

Assuming all of this is true (it isn't), wouldn't these kids also be born without original sin?

And what exactly is a soul? If a soul is all my memories and personality, well you aren't born with that, you gain that through your life. I would argue that no one is born with a soul, but instead they gain one as they life their live.

So every time I have sex with my (potential future) SO, we create a soul? But since no conception takes place we're just creating bodyless souls to float around?

So THAT'S where ghosts come from.

According to you, Bob, half of those children will be born without a soul anyway, considering you think all females are essentially soul-devoid.

Why don't you go and laminate your balls to protect them from being touched by feminists and give yourself something to do besides type out fucking stupid tripe on teh interwebz?

No soul? I guess they don't have to worry about hell, then.

Oh noes! Since I probably will have a hard time having children naturally due to my PCOS, I will have to resort to IVF and my child from IVF will HAVE NO SOUL like some freakish clone!

Wait. I don't care. That makes a world of difference!

According to South Park, Japanese people and "gingers" (people with red hair and freckles) have no souls, either. I guess we should add people conceived in vitro to that list, too.

The whole point of Frankenstein's monster is that he HAD a soul! A very good, gentle, and loving one in fact.

It was the rest of the world that judged hum on his looks.

Even his creator hated him because he looked ugly.

Bob, you are an illiterate assclown.

You do not understand Mary Shelley and should not comment on her novel--or any novel, for that matter. The problem with the monster's creation is that he's immediately abandoned by Victor. You could argue easily that Shelley presents a very humanistic perspective in the book, because the "monster" is instinctively empathetic, kind, and keen to learn and to love. (What someone like you might call evidence of a "soul.") He only turns vengeful when his "father" rejects him for superficial selfish reasons.

Feminist readings of the novel explore how Shelley criticizes Victor's creation of a child with no mother, but I don't think that's what you mean in your inane comments. Shelley may have been suggesting that men are too egocentric to create offspring and "feminine" nurturing and empathy are crucial to the healthy development of children. Again, not your foolish argument.

Haha, wow - I'd never heard this line of thinking before about IVF. Learn a new bit of crazy every day.

Children are created by "spiritual union"? Man, have I ever been wrong all these years.

This quote is so 1983. You were wrong then, and you're wrong now.

And, for the record, not a single human being was ever "created" in a test tube.

And a "soul" is just pre-scientific mumbo jumbo.

Fail...

The folks from 'Jon & Kate Plus 8' over on TLC would like a word with you.

I'd like to see this bozo tell Kate Gosselin *to her face* that her children have no souls, just because she needed a little help to get them.

O'course, to Bob's twisted way of notthink, five of the eight *are* girls ...

I bet you've met people that were conceived via IVF and you'd never know, because they are JUST the same as everybody else.

PS: Souls are imaginary.
