Last I recall, Meni Mazuz did not belong to Shas.

The Israeli Court is very apt to changing circumstances on merit of one case on it own facts. He did not read well ! he hee heeeee :)

This poor child will not know to whom he belongs, who his father is and if he's not a mamzer after all. Eventually these 2 sick women will come to their senses and get married like normal people and what will happen to this poor child?

- Mazuz: 'Only one biological mother' - Bereny: U R a genius! [ironic]

children grow up...what kind of lawsuits will they bring against their parents? what kind of rebellion will form their separation and individuation process? its like these people think if I go out into the field far enough my child will have nothing 2 rebel against...I for one tend to believe that they are wrong and that these children will all rebel with a vengance! but then I suppose we will all have to wait and see

the biological parent. And issue converning- The paramount consederation is the child welfare, and one that is also based on individual right against public policy. Why no wardship argument made therein ?

So is Olmerts daughter the mother or father of her child? Imagine this scenario, a child points to a woman and says that's my daddy. and then points to another woman and says thats my mommy? Confusing, huh?

in an intimate relationship, the woman donating the egg would be considered the "biological" mother, and the woman giving birth would be considered the "surrogate". If the lawmakers involved do not wish to break new ground, they should just stick to the old standards. Otherwise, they just look bigoted and self-important, and are wasting my money.

This is the normal situation where one woman donates a ovum and another acts as a surrogate mother. Only one is recognized as the biological parent. I'm not sure that it is in anyone's interest to make this a special case.

If a woman is acting as a surrogate with the intention of giving the baby to the couple who provided the egg and sperm that's one thing, but a woman who gives birth to a child conceived from a purchased/donated egg is still considered the biological mother under Israeli law. A woman who gives birth to a child does not have to adopt that child (this is also Jewish law, btw--the woman who gives birth is the mother, even if the genetic material wasn't hers).
