My 4 yo daughter was conceived via IVF as well. HUGE SUCCESS.

Are you kidding? They're going to introduce legislation mandating IVF. After all, they just want women to be broodmares for the state while the menfolk drink and do meth and have gay sex in cheap hotels.

Exception for white, rich girls who need to go to college first.

But what about the 130 million snowflake embryos that this process leaves behind? We need to have a federal program to implant and bring these little Gifts from God to term. Then we can ignore them until they turn 18 and we need to invade Iran.

In California, soon the test tube will be considered one of the kid's parents.

Man has killed man from the beginning of time, and each new frontier has brought new ways and new places to die. Why should the future be different?

Missed it by that much. And by that I mean 5 minutes ;). Great minds etc...

Eventually no human will be able to conceive normally since we don't weed out the defective ones. All we'll have left is test tube babies; no mother, no father, just a formula mix that spawns the next generation.

And so it goes.

I wonder if more or less than 5 million children starved to death this year?

Never mind, lets produce more!

I still remember how freaked out people where when this first came to light. That's why I thought people would stop freaking out about cloning but, apparently, there's some kind of difference in people's minds.

In vitro = Nature's little helper
Cloning = Of the devil
