Abortion of "Excess" Babies Common with IVF

VIRGINIA BEACH, Virginia, July 4, 2006 (LifeSiteNews.com) -
"Excess" babies are routinely aborted as part of in vitro
fertilization techniques, a report by the Virginian-Pilot acknowledged
yesterday.
The report examined the problems associated with multiple births, a
common occurrence when attempting to conceive and successfully carry a
child using artificial technology. The success of IVF techniques
typically rely on the insertion of multiple embryos to enhance a
couple's chances that at least one embryo will successfully implant
and result in a pregnancy.
Frequently, the procedure will result in more than one embryo
implanting in the womb at a time, resulting in abnormally high rates of
twins, triplets and quadruplets. All multiple births pose far greater
risks for both mother and children. The babies are usually born
prematurely with dangerously low birth weight, at risk for serious
disabilities.
To avoid these risks and increase the chances of having a healthy baby,
fertility clinics commonly recommend the "selective reduction" of
one or more babies-which in fact simply means aborting the children
tagged as less promising to make room for the baby (or babies) believed
to be physically stronger.
"In a world where debate storms on legislative floors over stem cell
research and abortion, embryos are culled with quiet regularity from
the wombs of women for whom fertility procedures were too effective,"
wrote report author Elizabeth Simpson.
Although some fertility clinics have attempted to cut down on multiple
birth rates by voluntarily placing restrictions on the number of
embryos placed in the womb, such measures only result in the deaths (or
indefinite storage) of left over embryos denied access to their
mother's womb.
This treatment of "surplus" embryos is a core argument against
artificial procreation methods, raised by the Catholic Church and other
religious and political organizations who charge that in vitro
fertilization techniques are fundamentally immoral.

And if your stupid God had done a better job of "intelligent design",
IVF could probably be avoided.

Freewill.
You cannot have coerced freewill. If you believe you can, then you must
also believe that when the bad guy sticks a gun to your head and says
'Give me oral sex now or I'll blow your head off' and you comply, then
you committed sodomy of "your own freewill".
Nice try ...

Let's get this straight. Anti-abortionists and anti-stem-cellers would
have you believe that, if a minuscule polycellular organism had
fleeting contact with a just-fertilized egg, that act would be
considered assault--if not RAPE--and the organism would have to stand
trial for the attack!
Remember that!
