By fundamentalist you mean obeying the creator of the universe?

I think several posts in this thread have outlined the reasons for condemning IVF and many so-called fertility tenements. None of them have anything to do with equating a sperm with a person.

Medical intervention is not bad in all cases. What the definition of medical intervention is is the key issue here. Perhaps Hitler would call experimenting on handicapped people and prisoners good medical intervention. It is not.

Medicine is to assist in eliminating disease through moral means. It is not to commit intrinsically evil acts even if some good may come of it.

You automatically lose the debate by invoking Hitler. As if you can draw some perverted moral equivalency between Hitler and IVF.

You sound just like the "if God had wanted us to fly he'd have given us wings" crowd.

The difference between the factions here is that some of us believe God loves us unconditionaly and some of us are afraid of God.

I believe the former is true and I also believe the greatest Mortal sin is to interpret the bible to suit ones ends.
