“Bishop Wenski’s opposition to technological solutions for reproduction does not seem limited to the destruction of human embryos - even when no lives are lost in processes like IVF (which is what everyone is aiming for), he will still object to what many childless couples consider the greatest miracle of their lives.”
Correct. The technology (and ethical guidelines) is such now that in reputable clinics, only a finite number of eggs are fertilized and transferred -— avoiding horrors like Octomom and the supposed “millions” of frozen embryos.
You press them down to the ultimate issue, and the objection is that the man ejaculates outside the mother. Doesn’t matter if the wife “assists” with this process. It’s “masterbation” and thus a sin.
