 I also remember the Hammerhead shark, too. I find this fascinating.

| So basically, the shark "cloned" itself? Interesting... I wonder if it has anything to do with the Y-Chromosome "dying out" or something. |

| I wonder, are there any negative effects of this, such as those seen in inbreeding? And has it ever been observed in humans? |

If a human had gotten pregnant, with absolutely no possible way for her to have had sex, then the world would know about it. it would be huge news, so it's safe to say no.

| No, it's not parthenogenesis when God has sex with a woman. |

Religion should be kept out of science matters.

Is this what they mean when they refer to the 'Jesus Fish'?

No, the Jesus Fish was a symbol used in coversion by the member of the early church. They feared capture and imprisonment by authorities so they had to meet in secret to do their worshipping. Christians have been both oppressor and oppressed at one time or another. The Christians in China are being oppressed right now!
Jesus warned us that we would suffer for our beliefs, because of him. |
