    How did all the kids get the Jenova cells?

    Jenova was running rampant across the planet. Clones, mimetic legacies, were being created everywhere. I just wonder how so many people avoided getting Jenova cells.

    Jack: How do you know?

    Will: It's more of a feeling really.

    Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?

    Will: No.

    If Demolition Man were remade today

    Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
    Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
    Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
    Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
    Huxley: NO!
    Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
    Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
    Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
    Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
    Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
    Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
    Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
    Huxley: You need to leave, John.
    Spartan: But Huxley.
    Huxley: Get out!
    Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.

    By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.

    All the kids with Geostigma - and, presumably, Rufus too - were infected by the Lifestream itself. After Jenova was defeated by the heroes in FFVII, her essence dispersed into the Lifestream. When the Lifestream came forth to destroy Meteor, Jenova's tainted spirit energy was carried with it, infecting anyone who came into contact with the tainted energy. Midgar was where the Lifestream converged, so that's where a lot of victims came from. Kids seem to be especially vulnerable, perhaps something to do with the fact that they're still growing.
    (SPOILER)Reeve's mother was one of the first people to die from Geostigma, dying a few hours after her exposure to large amounts of the contaminated energy. Others, like Denzel, began showing signs more slowly.

    Virtually all of this info is from the novella, 'On the way to a Smile: Case of Denzel', and from the movie itself.

    Kadaj is actually kinda telling the truth when he tells the kids that he and they are brethren. The kids are carrying fragments of Jenova's spiritual essence that came from the Lifestream, while he and his brothers are fragments of Sephiroth's spirit that didn't disperse.

    Vincent: "The woman who gave birth to Sephiroth."

    Cloud: "...gave birth...?"
    "Wasn't Jenova Sephiroth's mother?"

    Vincent: "That isn't completely wrong, but just a theory."
    "That lady was Lucrecia."
    "She was an assistant to Professor Gast of the Jenova Project.
    Beautiful... Lucrecia."

    Yeah, that's what I got from it...

    I'm assuming that means "sorry for thinking you were wrong & thank you for providing proof that you were right".

    Lets be honest, there were plot holes in FFVII big enough to fly the highwind through.

    As for AC... the story wasn't so much written and thought out, as it was just thrown in there as an excuse for FFVII fan service.

    That's often been said, but the "holes" that are most often cited are easily explained either by in-game dialogue, extrinsic materials, or simple conjecture...

    SE wouldn't even put holes in there in the first place, no matter how hard they were to figure out.
