A hermaphrodite is an animal or plant having both male and female reproductive organs. Often, one or both sets of organs are non-functional, and hermaphroditism is considered a birth defect, which can be caused by abuses of alcohol or drugs during pregnancy.
Human Hermaphrodites
Christianity teaches that all can be saved through Christ. Doctors can often perform operations shortly after birth to correct the child to the intended gender and most hermaphrodites will then lead perfectly normal lives in Christ.
There is no Darwinian reason for human hermaphrodites to exist, since hermaphrodism does not provide any reproductive or survival benefits. Human hermaphrodites therefore provide yet another challenge to Darwin's theories, often explained away by evolutionists as an "unfavorable" mutation, yet they are unable to explain its repeated occurrence over the ages.
