Some of the strangest news I’ve ever seen came across my screen this week. A company in Australia is turning frozen embryo children into jewelry for their parents to wear.
Previously Baby Bee Hummingbirds had been making jewelry out of mothers’ breastmilk and placentas. Now, the company has turned its attention to frozen human embryos— embryos that couples choose not to implant in the mother’s uterus and no longer want to store or “donate.” To put it plainly, they’re making trinkets out of discarded children.
Founder Amy McGlade says, “I don’t believe there is any other business in the world that creates jewelery from human embryos, and I firmly believe that we are pioneering the way in this sacred art, and opening the possibilities to families around the world. . . .What a better way to celebrate your most treasured gift, your child, than through jewelery?”

Hmm, let them be fertilized and born?
That used to be pretty sacred.
Still is to me.
I know a human egg can be frozen but wouldn’t a fertilized egg...an embryo...be destroyed by the process?
OK. I’m done with the internet for today.
Do the also sell Amazonian shrunken heads?
Similar to the Nazis making lampshades from human skin taken from concentration camps.

I wonder if we’ll see them in scrapbooks at some time.
Same sick thinking that led the NAZIs to making lampshades and other items out of murdered Jews.
I’m referencing the idea that once it had been unfrozen, it could be fertilized. Then it could be implanted and hopefully come to term.
As for freezing a fertilized egg, I honestly don’t know if that is a viable reality. They don’t do it that way.
The procedure described, does involve freezing the egg and sperm separately. Once thawed the egg is fertilized and implanted as an embryo.

re: “. . . Human Embryo Jewelry”
Can God’s judgement be far behind??
2 Timothy 3: But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. 2 People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3 without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, 4 treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God
It is a crime and should be outlawed.
My thoughts a swell about Nazi products made out of humans. Parts of society disgust me.
Didn’t the Nazis make lampshades out of human skin... this is no different. And we call ourselves civilized?
Doctor Mengele please call your office. Sick pukes.
This is the kind of thing that makes one wish for the rapid dissolution of the human race.
Hmm, let them be fertilized and born?
An embryo is fertilized!
An egg(s) is just thrown away after successful completion of pregnancy.
Embryos are usually frozen and kept a while.

The Rand Consulting Group has estimated there to be 400,000 frozen embryos in the United States
We’ve really evolved since the Aztecs. /s
Thanks for the mention.
I read a bit more about it here.
