Let me ask all of you reading this thread who had biological children: why didn't YOU adopt?
Gotta let this thread go, but I wish all of you so dogmatically opposed to IVF would take a moment to consider the judgemental nature that you've taken here. I've been called selfish, sinful, my wife has been insulted, and I'm sure the abuse will continue.
Doesn't matter to me, as I will now go to lunch with my kids and wife and enjoy my day. I will also continue to work towards being a better Father and Husband and servant of God.
For those who've chosen adoption over IVF, I respect and understand your choice. However, making that choice should not be a platform to assert moral superiority over those who chose differently, or have done both.
You're lives might be richer if you weren't stalking FR for sinners to jump on. Moral superiority and presumed knowledge of God's will (whether it's your presumed knowledge or the Pope's) is a form of pride. Need we discuss the sin of pride?
