How are Sperm Banks regulated? If a woman walks in and wants to buy the sperm of some famous athlete or something does she get some sort of letter of authentication?
Can a sperm bank just say all of the semen is from Harvard grads ("our sperm is actually crimson in colour?") then just give homeless people cookies in exchange for their 'deposit'?
Do you think there are instances of fraud? Do you think on occasion a baby comes out Korean and the mother is really pissed off?
These are the things I worry about?

Actually, they all get tossed into the same vat, and then it's a race to see what sperm makes it. It's like an ethnic human lottery.
This reminds me of something I heard yesterday. Even after the baby is liberated from the womb, there's a chance the parents get the wrong kid.

It's got wiki in the address, so you know it's true.
you're retarded
Even further you have to worry about all of the homeless people who come in claiming to be Harvard Grads just to screw over infertile upper-middle class housewives who repeatedly deny them change on the way into Starbucks.
I know, sounds like I'm speaking from experience right? Creepy, haha.
change, change. Can you spare some change?
I like living in the wikiverse. It seems so much freer than the multiverse what with its jiggling and rotating mini demensions.
WHAT? 1/8-3/8 Do you think that's why 1/8 (making it up right now) kids are abused? Like the parents subconsciously know it is not theirs.
Noah - that is what I was thinking? Go in with a forged degree from Harvard and sell my juices at a premium rate or something?
and who is more retarded? my for writing it or you for reading it?
Bryce - hilarious.
what this makes me think about, is whether or not somenoe has ever gone to a sperm bank, got the insemination, and then aborted the fetus.
and i mean for any reason... one beign that the kid, was in fact, korean. can you sue the sperm bank twice?
but most importantly, how does god look at this - other than just shaking his head in disbelief.
i mean, if the artificially inseminated kid is, by nature (or not?) evil, is this theoretical woman not just a proponent of jihad?
speaking of jihad - how much do you think you could sell osama bin ladens sperm for on ebay?...
sorry, i have to stop. im laughing a little too much at my own provocations.
do you think Osama would be the most expensive sperm? If you had a celebrity do you think you would need to make contracts removing the parental duties from the donor so people don't get pregnant from the bank just to sue the donor. Is it possible to make such a contract and it be legal? (Mike if you read this you need to fill us in).
You bring up a good point about god. People often say WWJD but who says WWJT (what would Jesus think). I think even the most religious people concern themselves with the actions of Jesus' life and perhaps his judgment on issues but they rarely wonder about how he thinks. It seems that the god as people have made him to be would negatively judge these actions but what else would he think?
Does he go to the bar in heaven and sit down next (insert humorous dead person) and say "I give these people free will and they busy themselves talking about korean sperm."
that reminds me of something my brother once said. one of the most insightful things ive ever heard. we were talking about the Internet, and its pros/cons/evils/virtues, etc.
and he turns around and says something along the lines of "if I was god, I would be pretty pissed at people for the Internet. to think that I created ALL of this (the physical world) and people went and created a virtual one to live in instead. I would be insulted".
unrelated, but given that we are talking on this thing called the in-ter-net i figured it was valid. apparently its on computers these days.
i think what people should really be thinking is WWJB (what would jesus be). i mean, do you think when jesus was a little boy he was running around saying "when I grow up, I'm going to be the lamb of god!"
or did he run around saying, "when I grow up, I'm going to be a centurion!"
his mother nixed that by saying, "you keep running around saying things like that and you're going to make mommy very cross".
too far?
bryce, that one was for you. one love.
make your mother very cross haha. I'll give that 4 stars. Seriously read the book "lamb of god: the gospel according to biff". Its one of my favourite books. It is the story of Jesus and his best friend Biff. They go traveling and blah blah blah it is hilarious.
