SEXUAL ORGANS ARE SPECIAL CREATIONS 131 



eaten by the mother, which was never a part of any 

 other human body. 



Can we believe that the blind, unthinking atoms 

 and cells of which the embryo body is built up, do, 

 spontaneously, automatically and without the aid 

 of any extraneous psychic force, group themselves into 

 the chemical combinations and mechanical arrange- 

 ments, necessary to construct the sexual organs of a 

 male or female child? How can these atoms and cells 

 elect whether it shall be a boy or a girl? If they do 

 so elect, how can they differentiate and modify all the 

 non-sexual organs and parts of the body so as to cor- 

 relate them with the sexual organs? 



The evolutionist and materialist will say that 

 "heredity' or " nature' determines the sex of the 

 embryo. I reply that the force and power of " hered- 

 ity' and of "nature' are identical with those the 

 fertilized ovum because they can act, only, by and 

 through it; and it has no intellect, memory nor will- 

 power to determine the sex of the child; nor to con- 

 struct the male nor the female sexual organs after 

 electing between them, even if such a thing were pos- 

 sible; nor any power to correlate the non-sexual or- 

 gans and parts, with the male or female sexual or- 

 gans so as to produce a man or a woman. In fact 

 the germ-cell has no knowledge of sexual organs, nor 

 of their form, size, structure nor functions. It fol- 

 lows that neither ' ' heredity, ' ' nor ' ' nature ' has any 

 power to determine the sex of the child, nor to cor- 

 relate its non-sexual organs with its sexual ones. 



We are, therefore, compelled to believe that the 

 sex of every human being is determined by the Ore-
