    I am in the IVF process right now. I keep proposing to tell every religious person I know that they aren’t allowed to hug, kiss, or visit my abomination baby.

      Successful IVF parent here: it is a difficult, trying process but the reward is amazing! I tell our child that they were wanted so badly that we had to do some crazy things, but it worked.

      Best of luck to you!

        We didn’t get very many fertilized eggs, so odds are we won’t get a baby this round. This process is so disappointing at every stage.

    If you don’t know: IVF fertilizes an embryo in the lab and implants it into the uterus. Often multiple embryos are implanted in one procedure to ensure at least one is viable. If a plural pregnancy results, the mother can decide to “cull” the excess. (I don’t remember the proper term but abort isn’t it because you abort a pregnancy not an embryo)

    In any case, anti-choice activists believe that all embryos are people. Which is clearly false since they don’t have a detectable credit score.

    Weird that a guy with a disability aid would be against modern healthcare. I know adjusting your eyesight and creating life are different, but they’re honestly not that different. Both are just aids for body failures. Plus with stuff like micro plastics possibly affecting fertility, it’s not like God is the one making these people less fertile. (Unless the micro plastics are part of God’s plan, but if that’s true, how come IVF isn’t also part of God’s plan??)

    So contraception is bad, but IVF is also bad. Trying to stop yourself getting pregnant is bad. Trying to get pregnant is bad.

    Can these drop kicks actually figure out what they want?

    Same argument as People who wear glasses wage war against god.

    Disclaimer: I believe people should use science. That’s why we were given advance brains.

      Out of curiosity, how were we “given” advanced brains? And how are they advanced? Dolphins can do some amazing things with their brains that we can’t.

        Sure I don’t disagree. I’m sure the dolphins will thank us for the fish when they leave the planet as is tradition for their people. In general, I Don’t see animals making wonders that shape the earth or discovering secrets of the universe. Without human intervention animals will live in the wild and they will never be anything more than that. Humanity can do more like I dk make glasses for someone that needs them.

          That’s a very human-centric view. We know that both dolphins and elephants have comparable brains, they’re just different.

            Certainly is and you are right. If you have the ability to do more and don’t then Might as well be a normal animal and live like they did in eden as “god intended” for the original prototypes. A fish that doesn’t swim is not using it’s best attribute. Humanity best attributes are intelligence, imagination, innovation and the will to use all 3. That combined with the extended life gene (relative to most animals) to learn from experience got us were we are today. So all I want are leaders that know what got us here and STFU on crap like IVF. If it’s unnatural than so are glasses and literally everything humanity does.

      If we are waging a war against god, but nothing happens or changes… What the fuck kinda war is it then. The name is definitely better than the war itself.

    It’s an expensive procedure, so they want to lay the groundwork to be able to exclude it from health insurance by claiming “religion.”
