Vatican – Genghis Khan should get Nobel Prize not IVF pioneer
The father of in vitro fertilization (IVF) has won this year’s Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine. Robert G. Edwards, an emeritus professor at the University of Cambridge in the U.K., is the sole winner of the prize. “His achievements have made it possible to treat infertility, a medical condition afflicting a large proportion of humanity including more than 10% of all couples worldwide,” the Nobel Committee wrote, noting that approximately 4 million children have been born following IVF.
The announcement of Edwards as recipient, outraged the Vatican and in a statement from Rome a spokesman said:
IVF is such an unnatural way to bring children into the world, and by awarding Dr. Edwards the Nobel Prize for Medicine and calling him “the father of 4 million children” is slap in the face to one of the greatest fathers of all time, Genghis Khan. His Holiness is sure that Mr. Khan was a Catholic because he had hundreds, perhaps thousands of children, born the natural way. With 16 million living men carrying his Y-chromosome, Father Khan had about 800,000 times the reproductive success of the average man of his age. 8% of Asians and 0.5% of the world population carry Khan’s genes. Now that is fertility without science.

Ps I was commenting on the commenters not so much the story which used wry humor.
Glad someone recognized the ‘wry’ element. Thank you Karen.
Grade A stuff. I’m unquestnoialby in your debt.
My comments come from the often rediculed BUT beautifully wise upbringing in The Red Road [American Indian].
Like all conquers Khan raped thousands of women and little girls…no different from Ceasar waho also raped little boys etc…Women /girls had little to no human rights. When we progressives cheer this…we lose the heart & soul of the fight against ultra-conservatives who often flip the bird to human & Nature rights…That heart & Soul are the millions of dedicated people of enlightened mindsets who fight the good fight…PS Women & girls are human beings too…THE REALITY of the treatment OF THE ONLY GROUP THAT HAS NO MALES AS MEMBERS OF THE GROUP…is what HIS tory has cover up…Firt conservatives did it…Now many progessives do it in the backwards , bigoted names of making HATE [MISOGYNY] the devinition of SEX. It is not. Promotion of the worst treatment of human beings , by the most fascistic of means, the promotion of the greatest hate the world has ever known all down through herstory is NOT COOL. And not manly. Ask Tom laughlin the man who played Billy Jack OR Ted Bunch , Kevin Powell: Real progressives AND real men…who prove it by fighting the good fight against this historical cover-up & historical fascism …& Stand Tall over thre treatment of women/girls NOW & HERSTORICALLY.
Anyone who gets to shag so many women is ok in my book.
I was unaware of Mr.Khans Y-chromosome project which has evidently been ignored by history. Kudos to the Vatican for finally giving this pioneer some credit. Not everyone needs college accreditation to make an impact on science, as Mr. Khan has so devastatingly proven.
Bravo,sir.
