Yeah, I think what you did should be illegal. But while it isn't, I don't think people who did it "deserve" to go to jail for doing something that they neither have a personal ethical objection to, or is against the law. I don't know what else you want me to say.
Because you're giving conflicting statements and falling back on the law instead of stating how you actually feel. I made it clear that my question had nothing to do with the law, yet you keep bringing it up.
What I want you to say is what you think the punishment should be based upon the fact that you think it's illegal and believe that I essentially murdered several humans. If you truly believe that embryos are humans just like everyone else, what you think should be the punishment for what I've done should reflect that. If you don't think I deserve 25 to life for each embryo, you're acknowledging that an embryo is different from a living, breathing human.

So you're okay with saying that my kids never should have been born? That my kids exist only because of an immoral practice that never should have been allowed? Would you be able to look a child born through IVF in the eye and tell them that?
