00:00Liberate women of the role of carrying the baby.

00:03Why are you unnecessarily destroying their potential for years altogether?

00:07Nine months they are pregnant and then they have to perform other physical functions with respect to the baby.

00:12It is anyway the output of a factory.

00:15It is anyway so mechanical, so programmable, predictable, everything, right?

00:19So let it happen in a lab.

00:20That will be more decent.

00:22That will be more befitting to the dignity of the human potential.

00:26There is no point.

00:27And I am not against babies.

00:29I am just saying let them be a laboratory affair.

00:32But that appears inhuman to so many people.

00:34They say, you know, this chap, forget about him being spiritual.

00:36Is he even human?

00:37He is talking of babies as shoes and spoons.

00:40He is saying let them come from factories.

00:42I am saying they are already coming from factories.

00:44It is just that you do not realize that the womb is a factory.

00:47You don't realize that.

00:48That's your problem.
