I'm sure there probably are Catholics out there who do, but I'm sure they would be in the minority, as I have never met anyone or heard of anyone who thinks it should be illegal.
Okay, well, you sorta dodged my question.
Based on your answer, I'm going to say you think it's wrong for the RCC to use it's influence to make IVF illegal. Is that a fair interpretation of your response?
If not, please answer my question more directly: Do you think the RCC should use it's influence to make it illegal for anyone to use IVF?
Edit: I'm also kinda puzzled that you keep giving me kudos.
Sorry, I didn't realize I was "dodging" your question, I guess I just misunderstood it. When you say "the Catholic Church use their influence," aren't you referring to Catholic people deciding that they are going to do this? What exactly are you referring to?
When you were being very mean to me earlier on in the thread, I was giving you kudos as a joke. The last kudos I gave you was genuine because I liked that you accepted my response and then asked the next question respectfully.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
