You have it backwards.
The anti-life have found a new way to divide and attack the pro-human rights advocates.

I can remember when everyone scoffed, just as you do when some philosophers predicted the slippery slope of in vitro fertilization, that would result in the devaluation of human lives, making them commodities to be used and discarded as the owners wished. And here we are, with parents ordering hundreds of embryos created for evaluation for treatment of a sibling and destroyed if not the right immune match. (JAMA, May report of 9 couples who had 500 embryos created, less than 50 were implanted, 5 babies were born)

If only it were safe and rare, huh?

And what's the problem?

Math wasn't my best subject so maybe I missing something but the way I see it

If there was no IVF there would be net total of 500 unfertilized eggs that would never be born,

However with IVF you lose 495 out the 500 that would have been lost anyhow but you now have a net gain of 5 new lives.

5 new lives vs Zero, So how is this a pro-life issue when life comes out on top
