Editing Sperm of the greatest mathematician (section)

== God's response to disrespect ==
I therefore understand the reproductive prophecy as containing an element of divine irony and divine judgment.

Human society did not give what I consider the greatest mathematician in known history even an ordinary scientific degree. Academia did not assign me the position that, according to my evaluation of my mathematical discoveries, would correspond to my contribution.

But God's response, in my interpretation, is not merely to confer an academic title.

Instead, Revelation moves to something much more fundamental: '''descendants'''.

Academic institutions can refuse somebody a degree. They can refuse a position. They can refuse prestige. They can exclude somebody from their professional hierarchy.

But they do not control God's judgment of a person or God's plans concerning that person's posterity.

I interpret the reproductive dimension of Revelation 11 as God's expression of disrespect toward the human disrespect shown to me.

Human institutions effectively said: this person does not deserve even ordinary academic recognition.

God's symbolic answer, in my interpretation, is: the reproductive material of this person is itself important enough to appear in prophecy and to be governed by sacred restrictions.

That reversal is intentionally extreme.
