I think the Catholic Church is right about in vitro. I believe strongly that to go the in vitro route requires a low view of life. How anyone can conceive several babies knowing in advance that the majority of them won't make it is beyond me. I understand the desire to have a child, but there are many children who need a loving home if the desire is that strong, and if the desire to raise a child is purely unselfish, which many claim it is. IMO in vitro is an act of selfishness, not an act of love, and reveals how many parents want to have children for their own selfish reasons.

My hat is off to the many parents who have children naturally, and who adopt, and truly do give of themselves sacrificially to raise them properly.

most people do not realize the gravity of the sin.

it's too bad that most priests do not speak about this issue.
