Conception as Metaphor

Penetrating the ovum, the sperm dies in order that the ovum ( now the zygote) might live.
The zygote lives at the price of taking on the DNA of the sperm, at the price of transformation.
 
Likewise, Christ entered the world to give His life,
So that the world might be transformed and so live on.
The world is transformed at the price of receiving Christ's spiritual DNA.
 
But how can I say that this enables the world to live on ??
It's true in one of two ways:
1)The sun will overheat, scientists tell us, in one or two billion years --
Cooking planet Earth.
But by then the population of Earth may well be 50 billion people,
50 billion clones of Christ - in terms of miracle- working power !!!
Think of it !!!
For didn't Christ promise, "greater works than these shall you do"( John 14.12).
And isn't a billion years enuff time for that maturation process to come to fruition??!!
So mankind working as one great collective godling, can exercize enuff spiritual power, entrusted to them by God,  
To counteract the overheating of the sun !!!
Yes, Christ has the power to calm down the sun -- like He calmed the tempest when He commanded, "Peace, be still" (Mark 4.39)
 
Alternative way Christ can prevent the Earth from perishing:  
Think of Earth not as a planet but as Mankind that covers it.
As Man colonizes Space, reaching distant planetary systems,  
Human civilization will be so far from the sun that Mankind will survive when the overheating occurs.
Earth the Mother Planet will live on in terms of humanity and flora and fauna transplanted on daughter planets thruout our galaxy.
The Milky Way Galaxy is destined to become a glorious macrocosmic garden of Eden.
 
Thru Christ coming to Earth and causing science to flourish  
-- science being responsible for the Space Age and what flows from it --
Christ has indeed enabled the Earth "zygote" to split into two planets:  
Earth and Mars (as civilization is imparted thereto).
And then after that, countless other cell divisions will take place over billions of years.
 
PS: "To God be glory in the Church by Christ Jesus thruout all ages,
WORLD WITHOUT END, amen" (Ephesians 3.21).  
Above I claim Christ has "caused science to flourish.."
How so??!!
Well according to Christian doctrine Christ created the universe.
Which means He created the LAWS OF SCIENCE that govern the cosmos.
So He can be called a scientist,even the Ultimate Scientist.
But we have His spirit thru conversion as symbolized by the Eucharist.
So we have spirit of the scientist indwelling us.
This explains just why it is that almost all the great scientists down thru the centuries have been Christians (or effected by the Christian culture surrounding them)
Examples:Galileo,Newton,Kepler,Watts, Priestly, Franklin, Faraday,Mendel, Pasteur,Darwin, Wallace,Edison, Hubble, and of course,Einstein.
Even as late as 1903, the Wright Brothers were the sons of the pastor of a church.  
"Glory to God thru the Church...!"
