Should We Object to People Storing Embryos Indefinitely after IVF?
October 10, 2022

#STRaskStand to Reason
Questions about how we ought to respond to the indefinite storage or death of human embryos after IVF, whether pregnant women should be able to use carpool lanes, and whether it follows that we ought to forgive Satan if we ought to forgive our enemies.
* If life begins at conception, and all life is valuable, how do we respond to those who create human embryos and then leave them to die or remain in storage indefinitely following IVF?
* Should pregnant women be able to use carpool lanes since their unborn babies are separate individuals?
* If Jesus commanded us to forgive our enemies, does it follow that we are to forgive Satan?
