Red-state Christian women are rising up, speaking out to defend IVF
www.washingtonpost.com
Following an Alabama court ruling that put IVF at risk, women who usually post online about faith and family have become outspoken, even angry advocates.

“They were attacking my faith. It bothered me to the core,” said Sara, a Southern Baptist who identifies as pro-life. “Because I had never viewed [IVF] as wrong, as anything other than beautiful and bringing another life into the world. … I’ve actually had a lot of friends pray for me and encourage me and help me along in the process.”

    Wait, so God can make sure no souls are harmed??? So why doesn’t he just always do that regardless if it’s an abortion or not? Instead he’s actively picking and choosing which child’s soul is harmed and which isn’t?? What an abhorrent monster your God is.

      Well, God has to draw the line somewhere. It would be weird if people who were going to live tragically short lives were instead born as soulless husks. The pro-life Christians defending IVF presumably think he draws the line at successful implantation.
