Time ,my diety and challenge of technology
The explosion of information technology has reduced the the distance between space and time .Human intelligence has now stepped to challenge and capture Time (my Deity) which I think crossing beyond the limit. Perhaps , this is why The Bible did not allow Adam to touch the Tree of Wisdom to save us from nearing the dooms Day.
Back to last ten years I first heard of vitro fertilization.I guessed that it might be a treatment for the barren women to conceive baby..... a research based on social welfare norm.
Recently I read an article and came to know that it is a process of egg-freezing.Women will freeze their egg : a fragile bud of human potential, to save their youth and fertility for future so that women can become mother at later age at their own will.
Later motherhood is going to become 'norm 'of coming new age'. A landmark for a giant leap of feminist's movement!
Isn't this egg-freezing promises to challenge the problem of biological clock............the last weapon against nature to end up sexual revolution since the invention of birth-control pill ? Did the feminists like Betty Fredan or Gloria Steinam imagined such type of freedom women would won within the span of 50 years?
Freezing,women are told, is a fountain of youth which means capturing & captivating time. Perhaps, we are nearing the Dooms-Day .
In Old Testament It is often mentioned about woman to ask "let us take seed from...........
Abraham"s first wife Sarai was barren and gave her slave-maid Hagger to Abraham to bear child for him . But at the age of 90. she became pregnant . Was it in those ancient age also bio-science was so advanced to preserve and apply"seed" which is now known as" frozen egg"?
Within one or two decades ,perhaps in most advanced countries, women at late age might be starting to give birth to their children.
What these newborn sets of poor babies will call their biological mother ? Mom or directly promoted to grand ma? who will bring up them?These grandma cum mom may be too feeble to take proper care.
Probably energetic young women will be recruited as foster or proxy- mother! Provision of new jobs for women; Not bad.!! Print this post
