The original story was so heartless. They put five embryos in, knowing that there were five lives. Yet, they agreed to kill several if they didn’t die off themselves. They should have only placed two embryos in to begin with. If not, the article never mentioned the woman’s life was at stake. If she could have survived the pregnancy on bed rest, she should have done it for the children she put in danger. The worst part of his article was his callousness and their choice to kill their boys because they might not be “perfect”. All people are created in the image of God. Therefore, while with sin, all are perfect.

But at that stage could they tell the gender of the embryos? He was concerned about autism because he 'heard' it was more prevalent in sons with older dads so they decided to target the male embryos for 'elimination' to 'prevent' autism. It was purely clinical for them, implant embryos, see how many 'take', and then eliminate the males. Very Hitlerian.
