Interesting!! My Bible says no such thing. It talks about the seed of Adam, the seed to Abraham, and the seed of David, but I have never seen any eggs in the mix.
Can you quote the passage of Scripture that says this, or are you writing your own bible??
I'm not writing my own bible, but you are good at putting words into my mouth. I did not say that the bible talks about an egg. I was stating that the sperm and egg is what makes (what the bible calls) the seed. There's indications that the semen is called that, (e.g. spilled his seed onto the ground), but that is not a complete zygote (talking biologically). From an observer's standpoint, the seed is implanted into the woman and she makes the baby so the semen (Seed) and the egg becomes the actual living seed. I think the bible clearly says that about the man's seed and the woman having a baby i.e. "conceived" thus implying the egg. What you just stated does nothing to this argument but a diversion. What you are going around telling people that the embryo in the womb is dead, thus you are allowed to abort. That's so ridiculous I really should not be wasting my time debating such an obvious error. If it were dead, you'd get what you call a miscarriage. So when does the baby become a person in your opinion?
As for James, your quotes are really out of context. He was saying faith without works is dead as a body without a spirit is dead, ie. its a corpse. A corpse rots and comes to nothing. But for a corpse to be a corpse it had to be alive at one time, i.e had a spirit. And if a baby in the womb is "dead" then it, too had to be living at one time to which you never answered when this was. It's hard to tell a mother that when she feels the baby moving about inside her and jumps and kicks and whatnot. Saying such a thing is dead is absolutely ludicrous.
