I read “committed Christian who supports IVF” and I can’t decide whether to laugh or cry.

Do either. It simply does not matter.

Well, I’m truly puzzled why you think it’s funny or sad that I’m a pro-IVF Christian.

I know a lot about IVF and I know a lot about Christianity.

Here’s an analogy: saying IVF is sinful because some IVFers choose to destroy leftover embryos is like saying alcohol is sinful because some choose to drink too much and subsequently end up in a whole host of sins.

I think IVF per se is not sinful in the same way I think alcohol per se is not sinful. But in both cases, Christians should be very careful with both.
