AS student engineer from the startup Overture Life told MIT Technology Review that he maneuvered a tiny, mechanized in-vitro fertilization (IVF) needle to release single sperm cells into the female eggs over a dozen times. The experiment was proven to be a success and led to the birth of two baby girls earlier this Spring.
I was calm. In that exact moment, I thought, ‘It’s just one more experiment.’

While IVF is nothing new, as roughly 500,000 are performed annually, this is the next step in that process. The cost to have any IVF costs around $20,000.
The concept is extraordinary, but this is a baby step.
Weill Cornell Medical Center fertility doctor Gianpiero Palermo, who created the now-commonplace intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) procedure in the 1990s, said in a statement to MIT Technolgy Review.
Palermo did note that the team still had to load the sperm onto the injector needles, which means it “is not yet robotic ICSI.”
Overture has already raised about $37 million, with big donors such as former YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki.
‘MIT Technology Review identified a half-dozen startups with similar aims, with names like AutoIVF, IVF 2.0, Conceivable Life Sciences, and Fertilis. Some have roots in university laboratories specializing in miniaturized lab-on-a-chip technology,’ the outlet added.

I have noted in other reports that this the way of the future, with selective breeding and fertilization; to create, to manipulate, and clone a new “master race” of “humans.”

He that walketh uprightly walketh surely: but he that perverteth his ways shall be known.
Proverbs 10:9
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

This is absolute insanity!
Those babies are probably going to have birth defects, because basically a video game impregnated their mother.
Good thing a Sega Genesis or a Nintendo controller was used in my conception.
I really wonder if that baby would even have a soul in them…
Good question.
I don’t believe these babies will have a soul. Isn’t this behind their whole agenda, to rid the world of humans with God’s Spirit.
