atheism and children

[Catholic_Lady]

It's not semantics at all.

We believe that IVF is immoral.

We still believe that all children are sacred and precious, and that a family is a sacred thing, regardless of how the children were conceived. So no, the Church does not teach that children conceived of IVF are "lesser" or that families consisting of children conceived form IVF are "lesser," as you claimed. I am sure you have a beautiful family.

But if you can't see the difference between the 2, then there's not much else I can say to you.

Then why all the fuss over the method? What's with the nonsense over the unbreakable connection between the unitive and procreative aspects of fucking?

You say the process by which my children were conceived is irrelevant. Your church says otherwise. Whose word should I take on the the matter....

It is irrelevant to a person's value as a human being. And again, no, the Church does not say otherwise. The Church teaches that every human life is sacred and worth the same. Period. Likewise, rape is a million times more immoral than IVF, but children who were brought into the world through rape are still precious beings who deserve all the same rights and is worth just as much as everyone else.
