Obviously someone who is insensitive, uninformed, and stupid. Also, someone who is obviously a parent taking his fertility for granted. The babies that are "murdered" during an IVF cycle are often embryos that would probably not have survived in a natural cycle. Doctors examine and transfer the best of the embryos to increase the chances of success. According to his logic, I have a lot of friends that horribly committed murder after they miscarried. According to his interpretation, I should be punished for having my period because I am expelling a potential baby.
I have had too many people tell me that it is "God's will" that I cannot have children. I cannot believe that it is "God's will" for a capable, loving mother to go childless, yet it is "God's will" to allow babies be born to crack-addicted and abusive women.
If I were to follow this man's teachings and advice, I should have taken my life four years ago when I was diagnosed with infertility. Since my husband and I cannot procreate, than we have no purpose on this earth.
This technology exists for a reason. It is to help the MILLIONS of childless parents have a family. Just because this poor man is raising his herd of hardheaded, one-sided, biased children, does not mean that the rest of us can't strive to have children with independent thought.

I must have missed that part.

I _really_ must have missed THAT part.
