Nature Does Not Make Mistakes

I was reading another Blog and someone posted a comment about “Nature does not make mistakes”
When someone makes that comment to me about “Nature not making mistakes”, my reply is, “Your right, nature does not make mistakes. That is why I am here to teach you, compassion, understanding and tolerance.”

Along those same lines, here are three articles that I found interesting. The first article is about birth order and the correlation between being the youngest brother and being gay. It seems like the more older brothers that you have the more likely you will be gay.

The next article is about the brain being hardwired for gender and sexual orientation. Scientists have found 54 genes that seem to be related to gender and orientation.
.... “Our findings may help answer an important question — why do we feel male or female?” said Dr. Eric Vilain, assistant professor of human genetics and urology at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA and a pediatrician at UCLA’s Mattel Children’s Hospital. “Sexual identity is rooted in every person’s biology before birth and springs from a variation in our individual genome.”...

In the article I do have one disagreement.
...“If physicians could predict the gender of newborns with ambiguous genitalia at birth, we would make less mistakes in gender assignment,” Vilain said.

I do not feel they should do any gender assignment at birth; it should be up to the individual to decide when they are old enough to decide for themselves.

Lastly this article about shampoos, soaps and body lotions containing lavender and tea tree oils how they might cause breast development in young boys. How those sources of environmental estrogen like compounds affect growing boys.

  1. Interesting article in the Post about the lavender/tea tree oil.

    I've read the article about birth order before.

    Thanks for letting me know about the post error. The only problem is, I don't yet know how to fix the code! Your post did show up though.
