Genetic anomaly or God Reincarnate? You decide.

NEW DELHI (AP) — A baby with two faces — two noses, two pairs of lips and two pairs of eyes — was born in a northern Indian village, where she is doing well and is being worshipped as the reincarnation of a Hindu goddess.



Lali was born with a rare condition called craniofacial duplication, where a single head has two faces.

Little Lali's proud parents believe that she is truly a God reincarnate.

Excited villagers claim she is the reincarnation of the Indian God Ganesha and celebrated her arrival with clapping, cheering and offerings of gifts and money.

Now, I am pretty fascinated here. When I see stories like these, I am fascinated, then slightly disturbed and disgusted, and then filled with pathos...

What are your reactions?

The shared cheek looks like John Travolta's chin.

Indians seem to pump out a lot of defects...probably about poor nutrition.
"Lali was born with a rare condition called craniofacial duplication"
There it is.

It must be one of the few places where you're treated like a god when you're deformed.

I read about a guy who had this condition a couple hundred years ago or something ... he killed himself eventually, and he left a note saying that the other face used to whisper things to him when nobody else was around.

I could deal with having the whole "Januskopf" look(all the fun I could have freaking out stoners while wearing a hoodie) but Ron Jeremy's nutsack would definitely have to go.
