Re: My secret belief
good analysis psyah,
Although I agree with most things you mention, few words of caution are warranted regarding the discussion on embryology, DNA and genetics.
According to current understanding of those topics, a few notions Code_Red proposes are improbable or even impossible. But similarly, a few counter-arguments you propose are equally unsound/unscientific -according to current understandings.
Anyway, let this not distract from what is turning into an interesting debate...
