Transforming in the womb

In India, a girl with 8 limbs was born. (see technical info at the website). The father of the girl said,"All this expenditure has happened to make her normal. So far, everything is fine." lead me to much questioning about how much science is fixing or helping the human race. Everything is fine??? An octopus child is born and this is just fine? If they were so interested in making her "normal", why didn't they get a sonagram and see that there was a spider crawling around inside her uterus and not twins, or a single child (human = 2 arms, 2 legs). Yet, somehow, intervening earlier on would have been "immoral"?

What would the evolutionary human look like if science didn't intervene? It used to be determined by natural selection, survival of the fittest. Could this previously 8 limbed child, if not made "normal" have been the new fittest? Perhaps we are now meant to have more limbs, maybe even become human spiders!

Yes, we discovered the science, figured out the building blocks of life and now, as they distort themselves, we viciously try to maintain order our our DNA structure. If that fails, the inner ego in our race screams to fix it!!! We can make them right again...but it doesn't. More and more people are reproducing and creating some else other than human.

It will interesting to see what we look like in 100 years, or better yet, look around you and see the evolutionary change going on right before our eyes! HA!!!!
