  • Children born from this method also have a very high rate of cancer, developmental problems and other issues. The other children are killed because only one of a few are "wanted." This is what happens when we reduce a human life down to a commodity.

  • so its unethical for a perfectly happy, functional, loving, christian married couple to conceive under in vitro? why? doesn't follow...

  • What bugs me about in vitro fertilization so much is that their are other options. Adoption. the world has gone nuts.

  • What of the case of Celine Dion who admits in trying to conceive a child but with no success. So she went the In Vitro way...does that mean she was in error even though she tried to conceive the normal way?

  • @FoxtronInk And I think that the Sun goes around the Earth, and that the Earth is only six thousand years old, and that someday big pink elephants are going to fly out of my butt. I'm sorry but, I believe what I say...

  • Good video.

    Delgado! Grow back your mustache!

  • I think the good doctor missed the main point of why IVF is a practice. It's the technique itself that's the most appalling. It's the fact that most of the time, multiple human lives are produced and grown in cultures in test-tubes, the fittest and most desirable picked and the rest ripped to shreds in stem cell or genetic research like guinea pigs.

    I feel that stressing what is being done to life is more important and effective in discussions in this increasingly secular world. than this.

  • In vitro Fertilization is an awesome sin. We can not go around life just playing GOD

    and get away with it. I'm sorry but, I believe what I say.
