In reply to the discussion: WTF-- IVF is the same as murder? [View all]DallasNE
(7,402 posts)37. Does She See A Vasectomy As Murder Too
Same concept as harvesting eggs that get discarded. The sperm gets discarded too. Obviously, the morning after pill would be murder too because it sometimes purges a freshly fertilized egg.
But I thought her view was that life begins at fertilization, not that eggs and sperm are lives for the purpose of being a human life. Or is she talking only about the eggs are manually fertilized but not implanted, in which case she would be practicing medicine without a license. But that is the problem with all of these wacko views. Where do you draw the line in the middle of the swamp.
