Nope. Are you trying to say the sperm only has 50% of the DNA that the resulting human being has? If so, yes of course.A single sperm lacks 50% of human DNA. Similarly each egg lacks 50% of human DNA.

What do you mean by female?As a matter of interest, do you know if the mitochondrial DNA, which is exclusively in the egg, comes as a separate package or is it part of the female 50%?
Both eggs and sperm have mitochondria. However, in sperm the mitochondria are in the tail to provide energy for swimming, not in the head. Normally only the head enters the egg, not the tail, so only the female mitochondria are present in the zygote. Biology being occasionally sloppy there are a few, very few, instances of mitochondria from sperm getting into the zygote. See here for an overview.As a matter of interest, do you know if the mitochondrial DNA, which is exclusively in the egg, comes as a separate package or is it part of the female 50%?
Thanks. That's really interesting, And obvious now I think of it, since the sperm needs a source of energy .Both eggs and sperm have mitochondria.

Yeah, what do you mean by female?Thanks. That's really interesting, And obvious now I think of it, since the sperm needs a source of energy .
Yes, and? Are you trying to say the sperm only has 50% of the DNA that the resulting human being has? If so, yes of course.Both eggs and sperm have mitochondria.

Actually slightly less than 50%, because normally the mitochondrial DNA in the sperm does not end up in the zygote. The egg has slightly more than 50% because it includes the mitochondrial DNA for the zygote.Yes, and? Are you trying to say the sperm only has 50% of the DNA that the resulting human being has? If so, yes of course.
Then not for you only.Not for me.
God made man from the dust of the earth. That is what men are. You seem to be claiming to be something else.I as a human being have human skin for example.
Only in your mind. A sperm is not a man, is it?There is a distinction.
It is clear that you don't know that you are a man.You think you are a word that was invented in the 13th century.I cant be any clearer than that
The paint is not Ford, is it? The Ford is not paint is it? In the same way, sperm is not a man.Can you distinguish between the ford and the paint>
You previously said "A single sperm lacks 50% of human DNA. Similarly each egg lacks 50% of human DNA." But even though you still havent said, I assume you mean the sperm only has 50% of the DNA that the resulting human being hasActually slightly less than 50%, because normally the mitochondrial DNA in the sperm does not end up in the zygote. The egg has slightly more than 50% because it includes the mitochondrial DNA for the zygote.
Ok so why did we misunderstand each other?Then not for you only.
No, I dont see what you are trying to say. The skin is human, its human skin, but its not a human being.God made man from the dust of the earth. That is what men are. You seem to be claiming to be something else.
But that is what I am saying, a sperm is not a man, but it is a man's spermOnly in your mind. A sperm is not a man, is it?
I have said nothing of the sort.It is clear that you don't know that you are a man.
but identifies someone with XY chromosomes, male anatomy and male reproductive organs, right?You think you are a word that was invented in the 13th century.
I understand you full wellOk so why did we misunderstand each other?
that is because you are blind to what i am sayingNo, I dont see what you are trying to say.
No the skin is skin. It is the skin of a man. Your word games are not working here.The word human was invented in the 13th century. Are you saying that there were no humans before the 13th century?The skin is human, its human skin, but its not a human being.
And you are a man because God made man. So a sperm is not a man and a man's sperm is not a man.But that is what I am saying, a sperm is not a man, but it is a man's sperm
The implication is clear. Do you agree that you are a man, that God made man and that the word human was invented in the 13th century?I have said nothing of the sort.
All mammals have an XY chromosomal sex determining system. What is your point?but identifies someone with XY chromosomes, male anatomy and male reproductive organs, right?
or you are talking complete nonsense. And despite claiming it you obviously do not understand what I am saying.I understand you full well
that is because you are blind to what i am saying
No, the skin of a human being is obviously human skin.No the skin is skin. It is the skin of a man. Your word games are not working here.The word human was invented in the 13th century. Are you saying that there were no humans before the 13th century?
never said it was. You are arguing with yourselfAnd you are a man because God made man. So a sperm is not a man and a man's sperm is not a man.
what implication? The words human and human being are used.The implication is clear. Do you agree that you are a man, that God made man and that the word human was invented in the 13th century?
the point is what I wrote, not what you responded with.All mammals have an XY chromosomal sex determining system. What is your point?
Nope...or you are talking complete nonsense.
I showed you that i understandAnd despite claiming it you obviously do not understand what I am saying.
In fact, it is the skin of a man. But it (the skin) is not a man. Only in your word games will your manipulation work. There is no mention of human in the bible. This is a bible discussion forum. The bible says God made man. Are you speaking about "man"?No, the skin of a human being is obviously human skin.
Unless you are saying there is a difference between a human (man) and a human being (man), you are saying a sperm is a man.never said it was.
Nope I am arguing with your nonsense, you think there is a difference between a human and a human being.You are arguing with yourself
You are trying to make them not mean the same thing. A human is a human being and a human being being is a human. You are trying to make human skin into a human when human obviously refers to human beings.what implication? The words human and human being are used.
The point is that what you wrote is exposed as nonsense by what I responded with.the point is what I wrote, not what you responded with.
If a sperm is fully human, then your crap is fully human.no they are fully human.
What is the difference between a human and a human being? Human= man. Human being = man.You are confusing them with human beings
Gin is not a cocktail.impossible. Of course they are human, together they make a human being
OkNope...
obviously not since I didnt understand youI showed you that i understand
A man is a human being, so it is the skin of a human beingIn fact, it is the skin of a man.
Again, I agreeBut it (the skin) is not a man.
what word games, I have just once again agreed with you.Only in your word games will your manipulation work.
More specifically (Genesis 2, God's image is a man and a woman.There is no mention of human in the bible. This is a bible discussion forum. The bible says God made man. Are you speaking about "man"?
Nope. I am saying what I have written, kindly address thatUnless you are saying there is a difference between a human (man) and a human being (man), you are saying a sperm is a man.
I agree, a human as in human beingCrap comes out of a human and an unused egg comes out of a human.
no. there isnt. But a human being has human skinyou think there is a difference between a human and a human being.
true, and human sperm is not a human being,Gin is not a cocktail.
Tonic is not a cocktail.
Not strictly. This thread is is the Secular section, hence there are some of us non-Christians here. For strictly Bible discussions you need to be somewhere in the specifically Christian sections.This is a bible discussion forum.
I didn't say strictly, did I?Not strictly. This thread is is the Secular section, hence there are some of us non-Christians here. For strictly Bible discussions you need to be somewhere in the specifically Christian sections.
good
Your not understanding has nothing to do with me understanding.obviously not since I didnt understand you
Therefore, a human being is a man. They both mean the same thing.A man is a human being,
the skin of a human is not a man, therefore it is not a human.so it is the skin of a human being
Do you actually agree that the skin is not a human? While the skin may belong to a human, it is not a human. It is the same with crap. The crap may belong to a human, but it is not a human.Again, I agree
The one that i am exposing.what word games,
really? then you agree that a man's skin is not a man.I have just once again agreed with you.
Wrong...there is a male man and a female man..More specifically (Genesis 2, God's image is a man and a woman.
But you are using them to refer to a man are you not?But ok, the words human being and human are not really Biblical
I am addressing what you have writtenNope. I am saying what I have written, kindly address that
which is referring to man (male and female)I agree, a human as in human being
then there is no difference when you say "man" either.no. there isnt.
A human being has skin. A human has skin. A man has skin. The skin is not human, it is skin. A human being has crap. Is the crap human?Or is the crap, crap?But a human being has human skin
No, rossum said it, and rossum was right in saying "Not strictly. This thread is is the Secular section, hence there are some of us non-Christians here. For strictly Bible discussions you need to be somewhere in the specifically Christian sections."I didn't say strictly, did I?
