No one has a right to “genetic viability”.

No, but it is an option if you have the money and the desire to have children.

Given your reasoning IVF will be become an government entitlement for any an all who demand it.

BS...you are taking this to extreme absurdity. Again, it is not a right but should be an acceptable form of creating life if one has difficulty getting pregnant and chooses to do so. I don't understand the church's stance on that as, IMHO, it is a pro-life position.

How many little lives are made to have one or two survive?
That is the point.

It's not "pro-life" to make 10 or 20 or 30 embryos so that one can survive until birth.

It's also not pro-life to convert human beings into manufactured products -- which is exactly where IVF tends to go -- in part because, inherent in the idea of a manufactured product, is the idea that you throw it away the "defective" ones.

IVF is not pro-life in any way, shape, or form.
