Kitchen Experiments

So let us say that we get to the day when women are able to grow their own sperm and no longer need to find an actual father for a child. Will the world have gotten to a better place when there is no dad to experiment in making ad libbed and ad hoc pancake extravaganzas? If a father doesn't pass on to his son the prize winning apple pie recipe can civilization be considered to still be progressing?

The march of science creates an almost zen-like question: if a child is raised without a father how will s/he know the best things in life?

** Without a father progress may not be. **
