Missing from your analysis is a glance at the children born as a result of this procedure.

What say you to them? You should never have been born in the first place? Those children are not a perversion of life, they are life itself.

You tell them the truth! They were conceived out of desire and love .... period. The important thing is to eliminate this method of reproduction. It is selfish in that it fulfills the gratification of those who want their own children while providing no thought to the child itself. Only recently, I posted a thread detailing the fact that children conceived in a petri dish are exposed to more oxygen than those in the womb. As a result, they are at great risk of certain diseases.

I'm sorry, but how do you arrive at the above opinion? I know a handful of folks who have had kids using this procedure (and have watched it unsuccessful in my sister's case), and I cannot place any of them in that little box you create above.

I posted a thread detailing the fact that children conceived in a petri dish are exposed to more oxygen than those in the womb. As a result, they are at great risk of certain diseases.

And there are parents who know that any children they conceive may be more subject to things like, say, Down's syndrome. Should those parents not conceive because their children are at a greater risk? Is your argument re: risk really smokescreen for your distaste for the procedure in and of itself?
