I agree that for the sake of argument we should focus on this analogy, it is relevant, it is scriptural, and it is the basis for WL's doctrine.
Who would say "the baby was processed in the womb"? That sounds like the Spam joke that Awareness is making, that brings to mind German concentration camps which may be the source of the "clang" that Trapped brought up, it explains the issues many of us have with the term and why I say this was the MO of WL.
Instead, the term "developed" seems to hit on a real mystery. How could God, become a man that was an infant and needed to "develop"? Also the term "develop" does not leave the fellowship of the apostles as the gospel says "And the child grew and waxed strong, filled with wisdom, and God's grace was upon him."
