So there you have it: the whole ideology of assisted reproduction in one of its earliest defences -- the irrelevance of the institution of marriage, eugenics, the irrelevance of the father, faith in technology and trust in doctors. And this is what the left has wanted all along.

But I thought you wanted more babies. This anti-abortion business is trickier than I thought.

Husband/wife in vitro is one thing but moral issues aside its a bad idea to produce a child who will only have a one sided medical family history.
Adoption would be my preference.

So you have no problem murdering babies in the womb. If a child is conceived by artificial insemination from a donor other than the father, the woman is committing adultery. However the unborn child is innocent and should not be aborted. Good luck at the White Throne of Judgement.

Donor (actually "vendor") insemination is the main technical perversion which is now mainstreaming homosexual parenting.
It all fits. You have to look at the whole overarching project: the deconstruction of sex. That is, breaking apart of male and female, sex and gender, intercourse and fertility, structure and function, into fragmentary pieces, and then cobbling them together again into some different design as to ourselves seems most useful.
The artificial human reproduction technologies are morally flawed because they separate the act of marital lovemaking from the conception of the child. It is not a healing of, but a replacement for the human sexual design. It doesn't "heal infertility": before the "treatment" the couple were unable to conceive via natural intercourse; after the "treatment" they are still unable to conceive via natural intercourse. The underlying disability hasn't been cured or healed, it hasn't even been addressed.
Artificial insemination splits sex off from procreation, leaves it out of the fertility equation. This renders the sexual act insignificant and inconsequential, and transfers the real significance and consequence to a laboratory production process and a commercial transaction.
My heart goes out to people who have medical fertility problems. I would urge them to seek true healing solutions which respect and restore the spousal one-flesh nature of human procreation. One place to start is Natural Procreative Technology: NaProTech (LINK) They hold out the hope of real healing for the infertile.

But I thought you wanted more babies. This anti-abortion business is trickier than I thought. That's because there's a huge difference between being anti-abortion and pro-life.
Being anti-abortion is a talking point used by GOP politicians and Pro-Life, Inc. to get votes and money. It has NOTHING to do with ending abortion and everything to do with perpetuating an issue.
Being pro-life is about realizing that God alone is the Creator of life and that He alone should determine when we are conceived and when we die.

I said nothing of the kind. The rest of your comment, I agree with.
