What else could you possibly mean by "surrogate mother"? A surrogate mother has no genetic link to the baby.

It most certainly does.

As now practiced, the surrogate host mother gestating the zygote of another man and woman has the same human DNA structure, and with the right immunosuppression cocktail, can quite nicely and profitable bring it to term.

Did the DNA of this baby come from the host mother's egg(s)? No. But the baby is definitelu going to be human, the child of the source parents.

That is, until we manage to gestate a monkey or rabbit in a human host mother, I guess (and hope not). You never know what genetic manipulation is going to lead to, these days, but some imaginative people have quite strange goals.

However, don't ever ignore the factors that the God of the Bible is considered omnipotent and omniscient, in processing your reckonings.

That’s not the same thing. I suspect you know it.
