I have heard that all human infants start out as female and then if the sperm carries the male chromasome the fetus turns into a male. Is this true? Where can I find any studies? What do Christians say about it?(as in man comming from woman instead of the other way around?)

This is true!! All fetus' are female for the 1st 6 weeks of pregnancy.. It is also true, that gender is predetermined at the moment of conception, and that comes into play after 6 weeks, if the baby is going to be male, the genitals form into male parts, rather than staying female! You can probably find this info in any anatomy and physiology book...!!

All human life starts out as female, there are no exceptions. this has nothing to do with religion, god or any other airy fairy ideals, its pure genetics and nature.
The determination of the sexes is not at fertilization but 6 weeks into the cycle, when the Y chromosome determines the male sex to develop.
Uneducated guesses, personal theories or biases have no place in this, its purely natural for the continuation and survival of human beings. If Y chromosomes were to become extinct, then nature would evolve the female embryo into an hermaphrodite state, being able to reproduce without the male input, therefore evolving into an all female world of humanbeings.
Personally speaking, and being male myself, I think the world would benefit from this, because the male of the species has so far had such a catastrophic effects on our planet, that it could be the only way this Earth will survive.

No. Sperm carry the X or Y factor, or boy or girl. The sex of the baby is determined from the moment of conception. This is a common misconception. It is a misconception because the sex organs do not begin to develop until the 11th or 12th week of pregnancy, and thus people mistake a baby to always be female, until the penis or vagina would show. Anatomically, if viewed via ultrasound or scope, a baby could, in fact, appear female, but be male, but this is because the testicles have not begun their descent from the abdominal cavity, and the penis has not begun to grow out. If a penis does not develop, it stays as the female clitoris. But no, babies are not all female. A baby cannot be female, then suddenly turn male. It is absolutely impossible. What is possible, is, as I explained, people mistaking a male baby for a female because the male sex organs have not begun to show yet. But every babies' sex is determined from the moment of conception.

In some animals this is so, but in humans, the sex of the baby is determined from the moment of fertilization. It just takes a while for the genitalia to develop into the proper form.

There is no new individual life possible until that one sperm penetrates the egg. Eggs are all female. It is the sperm which decides the sex of the zygote/fetus/infant/person.
Eggs are female. I don't think it's an issue for any modern religion or culture which comprehends sexual reproduction.

~I don't think this is true. The sex is determined right away, the actual vagina and penis are just not fully formed until later.

all men were once female. if there is a Y chromosome present, the ovaries will drop and become testicles
