    Woah, okay.

    They say that about 10% of the population is born with a tail like that. Usually, it is just snipped off, and nobody knows it. So, I find that kind of funny.

    My girlfriend's step-dad actually was supposedly born with one.

    The other things, are just coincidences. The arm flap is probably baby fat, the inverted foot a deformity, etc.

    Are you kidding me? You got people flocking across the world to see the Virgin Mary on a piece of toast or a statue of her crying blood. It happens all over the place, not just India.

    Okay they have issues like that all over the world. Go to any third world region and you see that kind of stuff. Lets not start with the crazy Jesus and Virgin Mary crap we hear about.

    You're right, but, I admit as an Indian, when I saw the thread title and clicked the link, I kept repeating to myself, "PLEASE don't be India again, PLEASE don't be India again, Please don-- Goddammit!"

    Is the tail hereditary?

    I wonder sometimes if this is a minority thing
    Cause I know various other groups that do the same thing

    I don't believe so. I just think it's a congenital deformity that happens every now and again, but is quickly corrected, so it gets no mention.

    To a lesser degree, I would say club feet is along the same lines. Babies are born all the time with club feet, but since it's easily corrected (nowadays at least), it rarely is mentioned. This baby seems to have both of these problems.
