One can't reasonably debate the morality of creating life in test-tubes when dozens of tiny humans must die so that one may live?
What is the moral difference of IVF and abortion? Don't they both cause the end an unborn human life in pursuit of some allegedly more noble purpose?
How has such an important topic been swept from the public square in your mind?

I don't consider a zygote to have enough of a human nature to be deserving of any legal protections. I don't consider potentiality to be equal to actuality, and thus I don't give much weight to the argument that the zygote in time will acquire more and more "humanness." You I know disagree with all of this. But since these are subjective judgments, and for some, based on the teachings of their religious faith (I have no religious faith), there is no point arguing about it. You just go to your "church," and I will go to mine. Regards.
