    Fully agree. Children of single parents often turn out fucked up in some way. I also don't agree with same-sex couples bringing up children for similar reasons.

    You speak of it in an unethical manner.  The purpose of this study is to help those with infertile or, cannot produce healthy enough sperm to concieve a child.

    wrong.. there was a big peace on the news in my area a few days ago about how some women who are perfectly capable or consiving and giving birth.. chosing to have artificial sperm (made up sperm) because they dont want there child to have a father, there a quite a few follower's aswel, they just say that they dont want a man in there child's life...

    Seriously.... why do we even keep you guys around???

    As for same sex couples having children or a single parent family, I think it's a wonderful thing. I've seen plenty of two parent/mother-father family's mess up their kids, as far as I'm concerened, it's about the love welfare that child receives not who it comes from.

    Morality of the technology asside, I think it's amazing that many people who wanted children and could not before, whether because of life style choices or not, may soon have that option. Think of it, if someone or a couple wants children so badly that they would go to this extent, do you not think they really want that child.

    Of course it's not a given that they will be great parents, but given that or some 15 year old who getting knocked up to spite her parents, I know who I want to have kids.

    Then lets just raid the labs and, everything will be back to normal.  Seriously, there's always nut jobs trying to get into things and, make their twisted desires real.  So what if you heard it on the news, go stop them if you care instead of reading about it.

    Emphasis mine. And he's right.

    YAY FOR FAKE BABIES!!  Seriously, if you really think this will make a healthy child you're stupid, you'll probably have a 2 headed monkey lipped 4 legged kid.  Homo's can take care of children but, shouldn't make children it's one step away from cloning hell it is cloning!  I'd vote down this any day of the year for aslong as I live.

    It doesn't depend on the fact if its normal parents, single parents, or homosexual parents.

    Depends really on how they are treated.

    Of course its true that kids can turn fucked up with homosexual parents, its not because of the parents, but of what other people say like Homophobics.

    I say two thumbs up to any research which could ultimately save our species from extinction. We must survive, we must percevier, we must multiply and spread, no matter the obstacles that stand in our way. Mankind will live on no matter what, and conquer all that stands before us. Hail Humanity's glorious eternal empire! Humanosupremacism for the win.

    I guess I missed the part where humanity was near extinction. Hell, the earth is so overcrowded more people is the last thing we need.

    Really?

    So if same-sex couples turn out so many f'd up kids, where are they?  I haven't heard of one single person who got messed up from having same sex parents.  You'd think by now there would be some poster child for the right wing to point to.  Where are they?

    I don't recall writing anything about our species being near extinction today. Rather, I was referring to a hypothetical situation sometime in the future when our species may, for one reason or another, be depleted to the point where such advances in biotechnology could potentially save us from it. Do you have a reading comprehension problem?

    Oooooh, that's it.  Pick on the people with reading comprehension problems.  I'll have you know that I'm severely dyslexic and understood you just fine. 

    I think it's some other problem.

    Dyslexia and reading comprehension are two different issues entirely.

    Does humanity have the self control to not use this tech until we actually need it? Of course not. If we use it now, it will hurt, not help. Artificial sperm, artificial eggs..we could mass produce millions of synthetic beings. Would they be humans? Kind of, sort of, maybe. Any research could theoretically save us from extinction. Maybe we should research some advanced super flavorful popsicle technology that we could trade to aliens in exchange for our safety.

    That's what I was trying to express.

    Reading comprehension problem. Nice. Thank you so much for accusing me of that.

    ya but its a really bad idea in the long run this type of technology has no other application then to bite us in the ass.

    but as long as a parent has a loving family things will generally go the best they can for the circumstance.

    however i vastly think its better for children to have two healthy parentsl, i know cus ive never had a functional mother or see mine in 4 years now(about).

    not having two parents puts added responsibility on the children and takes away a lot of their childhood.

    but as for children being raised entirely without men is a bad idea.

    if women choose not to have fathers for their children i dont think its a great idea, because men need male influences, as well as female influences and vice versa.

    Shae would you really also want to find out that you only have half the biological family a "natural" child, and your perspective father never even existed....... would it really feel good when compared to kids who have two natural parents that you grow up with?

    If this technology is perfected, it should be limited to certain people. But still. I think women also prefer the old fashion way. It's somewhat funnier :P. You gotta remember, Children are like Plastic Model Kits. They are funny to build but afterwards they just take up space.
