Hmm...I'd say that makes his version of events seem more suspect, but it doesn't change my opinion that if he's telling the truth, he shouldn't have any parental responsibilities.
In a few more years it should be possible to fertilize an egg with DNA taken from a cell other than a germ (i.e. sperm) cell . That would imply that any DNA a guy leaves around (skin, hair, saliva) could be used to turn him into a "father."

Yes, they've done this already with the so-called 'lesbian mice.' It does make men irrelevant, at least for reproductive purposes.
What you don't hear mentioned is that it would be possible to two men to be the genetic parents, as long as you had a surrogate mother to go through the pregnancy.
