See, you can consider sacred whatever you want. The problem I (we) have with your view is that it seems so disconnected from any actual concerns about actual human beings and their well being and instead focuses on something so seemingly arbitrary that it almost appears insane. Imagine there's a cure for a disease and people are opposed to it because the pills have the wrong color. This is how your views (on this particular issue) appear to outsiders.
Do you think I lack concern for human beings?
(not sure if that's what you're saying, so sorry if not)
As for your second part, I don't know what to say. If you view my belief regarding this the same way you would view someone saying it's wrong to take a pill to save a life because it's the wrong color, then that's how you see it and that's fine. I think it's unfortunate that you see it that way, and that you possibly think little of me because of it, but you are entitled to your own thoughts of course.
No no no, you have shown that you have plenty of concern for your fellow human beings. I'm saying that some of the views you defend here are apparently completely disconnected from concerns for the well being of human beings. Do you understand the difference between me pointing that out as opposed to accusing you as a person of lack of humanity, which I don't?
Case in point: your issues with IVF do not primarily originate from concerns how to make people happy and healthy.And no, I don't think you would reject medicine because of the pill color - that was sn analogy (but if the church would teach it so, you presumablywould!)
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
