"It's A Mystery. It's Magic. It's Divinity:" Conception to Birth

Alexander Tsiaras, an image-maker and the author of the book From Conception to Birth: A Life Unfolds:

"The magic of the mechanisms inside each genetic structure saying exactly where that nerve cell should go– the complexity of these, the mathematical models of how these things are indeed done are beyond human comprehension. Even though I’m a mathematician, I look at this with a marvel of how did these instruction sets not make mistakes as they build what is us. It’s a mystery, it's magic, it's divinity."

It is all that! Thanks, Gerard, sending this far and wide.

Actually there are mistakes. Charles Manson is a good example

I doubt either Hitler or Manson or Mao were this way from conception. Perhaps it would make a useful argument of the abortion rights lobby:

Abortion: Preventing millions of Hitlers and Mansons from seeing the light of day. You should be thanking us.

Thanks Gerard.
It shows that abortion is indeed murder. When I say that, some ask, "What about rape?" Good question, I suppose. So I ask, "Just because this new human was conceived in an act of violence, is it therefore Okay to kill it? It's innocent. And if it's Okay to kill this baby, why is it not Okay to kill the rapist?"
Then the discussion wonders off in other directions.
WTF?

Jewel:

I doubt that you where this way from conception. Since you seem to know so much about Mao, Hitler and Manson, i take it that if you had been born in their place, youd never do such horrible things as they did? I guess the only way to explain their evil doings is by rolling our eyes back while saying that "oh well, they should have been aborted, cause they where totaly unworthy of life".. Hmmm.. how about all those children who are aborted that could have been potential soldiers of liberty that would have protected you from bad guys? Stupid logic of yours...

Yngve, you missed the /sarc tag at the end of my comment. You must be Swedish and therefore humorless.

Plus, dear Yngve, I was responding to f1guyus' comment: "Actually there are mistakes. Charles Manson is a good example."

I still doubt that anyone is evil at conception, though there are some Biblical passages that would disagree with me. Point is, even evil people start out innocent babes. Except for Rosemary's baby. Duh.
