  A non-viable fetus is not equivalent to a baby.

      Nonviable:

      1. Not capable of living or developing.
         ”a nonviable fetus.”
      2. Not workable or practicable.
         "a nonviable idea."
      3. Not viable: not capable of independent life; not practicable.

        Thanks for the definition

        I think abortion is wholly different from getting a nonviable fetus removed as it cannot develop nor live

  I am curious, how do you feel about IVF? Should infertile people get to do it? It destroys embryos in the process. And it’s “playing god.”

    As to the “playing god” thing, I was actually quite amazed at how touchy the IVF doctors were about that issue. They had some interesting rules about what they would and wouldn’t tell the parents about the offspring options. I’d have to go ask my friends about it again for all of them, but I remember one of the rules was the doctors wouldn’t tell them the color of the eyes before choosing.

      I believe that ethical doctors do this. I also believe there are some unethical doctors out there who don’t give a shit and allow their patients to select for all kinds of traits. Ultimately, there is no way to know unless someone talks about it.

      My first challenge to you would be to go look into the eyes of infertile people and tell them that “not everyone deserves a child, it’s not a right, it’s a gift.”

      It’s easy to argue on the internet behind your keyboard. Much much harder to say your shitty beliefs out loud in front of people.

      Here is my second question for you. A hypothetical.

      You are at a fertility clinic, and a fire breaks out. You run past a room almost engulfed by flames, and see a little 4-year-old child in there, screaming for help.

      As you go to rescue this child, you notice that the other side of the room has hundreds of embryos in Petri dishes. Babies, according to your beliefs.

      You only have time to save one of those things. A 4-year-old child or hundreds of babies.

      Who do you save? Be honest.

        You’ll never get a decent response from them

        They’re stupid, and deep in their cult

        I think they just come here because they have a humiliation fetish

        1. I could and would say “Hey, I don’t think IVF is moral. I don’t think murder is justifiable.”

        2. I do not have time to save hundreds of petri dishes at once. IVF is also immoral as it creates so many human persons and only chooses one to live. I call the fire department after saving the child and pocketing as many petri dishes as I can
