Theologically, I don't think they'd have a soul.
They may look and act like children, but I can dress up my dog in shorts and a Polo, but it doesn't make it human.

If these children are not human, would you be okay with treating them the same way we treat animals? Would kids created by this procedure not be entitled to the rights granted the rest of us by our Creator?
If the result of such an artificial conception can breed with a naturally conceived child and produce viable offspring, it is human.
