I have seen far too many grotesque genetic deformalities and congenital defects, to think we are products of intelligent design. Of course, your choice of wilfully ignoring to consider the case of crippling / degenerative genetic abnormalities running in contravention of ID, does not make ID any truer.
"...as to the your genes being carried on better, LOL again, because we are taught to be fruitful and multiply, we do so. Many more christians have extremely large families and furthermore, have far fewer abortions than do those who argue for invitro due to that whole selfishness entitlement mentality I was speaking about to begin with."
What about the case of infertile Christian couples who can be helped with IVF. Your having of many children, in no way helps the cause of the infertile couple striving to preserve their genetic legacy. That's the cold, plain, dark truth of our existence on this planet. You can hide this truth however you want, but it never ceases to remain the truth. Sadly.
. . . the infertile couple striving to preserve their genetic legacy.
now that is just silly. The design is perfect, imperfections come only when the design is not followed for some known or unknow reason. Only when one deviates from design do those grotesque deformities happen.
as to those infertile christian couples, they are not practicing what they preach. they are practicing selfishness instead of selfLESSness. Taking in a needy unwanted child as your own is the ultimate act of selflessness. Only caring about perpetuating your genetic line, consequences be damned (creating 10 embryos, implanting only 6, selectively reducing 2-4 to make one viable baby) is the ultimate act of selfISHness, imho.
