They are going after IVF? I missed that. WTF? What is there justification for that?

It’s common to fertilize multiple eggs and implant only one embryo a time. The remaining embryos would be frozen until needed or destroyed, and the abortion bans can be interpreted to ban destruction of any embryo, even one not implanted in a uterus.

“God doesn’t want you to have kids if you’re not able to do it naturally” Essentially just bull about IVF being too close to playing God

Except for the fact that I know some ultra-religious types who are vehemently against abortion but have done multiple rounds of IVF themselves. Make it make sense.

Yeah really depends on the individual and their personal beliefs, often which are just like the most wildly contradictory ideas you’ve ever heard

"Rules for thee and not for me."

It makes no sense but it's their whole ethos.

Given the position of god is vacant, someone sure needs to step up and play it
