Human life begins in bright flash of light as a sperm meets an egg, scientists have shown for the first time, after capturing the astonishing ‘fireworks’ on film. An explosion of tiny sparks erupts from the egg at the exact moment of conception.

The video is amazing. However, Christians in today’s world should be ultra vigilant about accepting man’s version of “truth” about anything that pertains to The Almighty and his Creation.
We are saved by faith that what Our Creator has told us in His word is the truth that we live by, not some “proof” that is touted by flawed humanity.
>> No. I am saying it happened without conception. <<
That’s why it’s an inference. So you’re thinking the inference is invalid?
I believed that until I understood the twinning process. Logically under your belief there would have to be an infinite number of souls, since an infinite number of twins can be split from the fertilized egg. Or, souls would have to split, which to me would be even stranger. There is a point a few days (or so) later when it becomes impossible to further split to twins, which makes more logical sense as a point in time when one single soul could be present. Something happens to the fertilized egg at that point which is still a scientific mystery. I believe that's a more likely point in time for the instant a soul enters a body.
I was in my 30's before I realized that phrase meant that the father was feeling horny.
Sheltered upbringing? (LOL)
I just heard about this story and came to FR to see if it was posted already and sure enough it was.
About your question here: at best, the reaction visualized in this experiment could indeed be a signal as to when the soul is (normally) infused into the baby, however no chemical reaction, no physical process produces the soul. Each soul is created, ex nihilo, by God. There is no physical process that makes it. Each individual human soul is the product of the same creative force that created the universe, God's Will (His Love really), an infinite power that can (and does every instant) create something out of nothing.
What the atheistic evolutionist would have us believe is that what makes us truly human is a product of some evolutionary process. I certainly believe "evolution" occurrs but only as a means by which God created (and creates) Man's physical form. The soul though didn't "evolve" every soul is created by God.
However to ask if this enzymatic reaction "produces" the soul is to reduce its creation to a chemical reaction, which plays right into the hands of the evolutionary atheist. The soul is spiritually real, not a product of anything in the physical realm. Its reality transcends the physical world (in that sense it can be said the soul is "more real" than anything produced or observed by science).
With God, all things are possible. I believe that there are an infinite number of souls available.
[[no chemical reaction, no physical process produces the soul.]]
No i know it doesn’t produce the soul- I wondered though if it might ‘signal’ the soul that life was about to happen, or even that a single process of life was taking place (not that it is life itself, but I also wondered if all that needs ot happen is a single process in order for God to create those who will never be born but get to enjoy eternity with Him anyways- it’s a wild thought- i nkow
[[However to ask if this enzymatic reaction “produces” the soul is to reduce its creation to a chemical reaction,]]
Yes I see that i worded it wrong now- my explanation above is what I wondered-
So do I, but that is a non sequitur to the train of reasoning that I posted.
