Could it be possible? A zygote would have its genetic material removed, then injected with half the chromosomes of one man & half of another. Since the resulting baby would have genetic material from 2 men (such as an X from each or an X from one & Y from the other, it wouldn't biologically have a "mother". Wouldn't that be strange? |

Would it be strange? Yeah, kinda. Would it be worth getting remotely worked up about? Nyet |

I think the act of trying to take out a zygote's origional genetic information would kill it. |

Uh....ya still gots to have an egg to make the zygote...even though theoretically, it bioloigically wouldn't have a "mother", I think the woman who donated her egg to the process would be considered the mother, no? Am I forgetting something here? |

She wouldn't be considered the mother since the DNA would have come from 2 men. |

Yes, technically, she wouldn't, I suppose, but I still say whoever donates the egg is the mother. Where did this idea come from anyway, Ian? |

This just came into my head a couple days ago. |

Oh, that's a conundrum. Biologically, it wouldn't have a mother. It is entirely possible. It was discovered that we may not even need males for reproduction, as 2 female's genetic material can form a zygote. About that though, everyone in the world would be a female (wouldn't you love to be the last surviving male??) I don't know much about it, but it hasn't actually been 'tested' yet. |

I don't really think it could survive like that anyway... |

Sweet Heavenly Cannonballs. I saw that coming. You're getting predictable in your old age, Bones. |

Of course it could happen in the US! That's what America is all about. After all, this country was founded by our four fathers. |
