Creating a bunch of embryos (new human organisms) to simply be disposed of and never used for pregnancies is not the way to do that.
They are NOT viable in a frozen state. Until they’re implanted and “accepted”, they are NOT beings...And if I remember correctly, many are destroyed all the time in the process.
It’s a person.
With a soul
So we are now going to adopt the Left's definition of when life begins? "Viability"? None of us were "viable" for many months into the term of pregnancy, either.
Didn’t they used to burn witches in Alabama?
Yes they are, or they wouldn't store them.
Until they’re implanted and “accepted”, they are NOT beings...
Good heavens! This sounds like the same nonsensical argument made way back when by notoriously pro-abortion California Senator Barbara Boxer in her debate with Rick Santorum.
And if I remember correctly, many are destroyed all the time in the process.
Which makes it all the more immoral.
You should examine your conscience
Also...will Alabama eventually go after women that ovulate, but alas...the egg winds up as a spot on a sanitary napkin?
Is that murder?
It isn’t immoral (IMO) to create frozen embryos as long as those embryos are used in an implantation attempt or adopted by organizations such as Snowflakes.
Nope , that was Massachusetts.
No
Yep
And then there’s this:
“ The Alabama Supreme Court ruled that frozen embryos can be considered children under state law.”
If you ban IVF there will be fewer children born.
Complicated situation, you have to weigh discarding embryos versus blocking a child from being born.
How many fewer?
Not as few as human organisms being conceived to be destroyed...just a twist of fate which ones get to develop and be born or put down a sink drain unwanted.
Technology that advanced faster than our ethics.
Hillary - is that you?
That’s a bad take. IVF is hard to defend once you learn more about it. It’s disappointing to see so many Republicans, even Trump, bending over backwards trying to condone this procedure, while Alabama gets it right.
What The Ruling REALLY Was The Right Angel
