50 SPECIAL CREATION 



hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen (protoplasm) of which 

 they are composed; which atoms are now, combined 

 and arranged, for the first and last time, into a sperm- 

 atozoon -or an ovum. The atoms in a spermatozoon 

 are chemically combined according to a prescribed 

 formula, and mechanically arranged according to a 

 specific plan; and the same is true of the atoms 

 in an ovum. Each spermatozoon has the same chem- 

 ical composition and the same mechanical arrange- 

 ment, the same form and size, that every other has. 

 So each ovum has the same combination and arrange- 

 ment, the same form and size that every other has. 



The materials, forces and motions employed in 

 making each spermatozoon are similar to those em- 

 ployed in forming every other; but they are wholly 

 different from, and independent of, those employed in 

 making any other; and the same is true of the ma- 

 terials, forces and motions employed in making each 

 ovum. 



In other words, each spermatozoon is composed 

 of its own atoms, and these atoms are selected, assem- 

 bled, combined and arranged by forces and motions, 

 peculiar to itself, independently of and wholly differ- 

 ent from, the forces and motions which build up 

 every other. The same is true of each ovum, the 

 necessary changes being made. 



It is a well known fact that each human sperm- 

 atozoon is so adapted to, and correlated with, each 

 human ovum that these two cells will, under suitable 

 conditions, fuse and produce a new human being. It 

 is also true that no other substance, on the earth, will 

 fuse with such an ovum with the same result. The
