IVF Is NOT Pro-Life

 





IVF Is NOT Pro-Life 


The president's decision to expand IVF access is not one we should celebrate.  


It is not a pro-life decision. In fact, it is the exact opposite.


This may surprise you, but more babies die from IVF than abortion every year. Our research shows that, roughly, for every one embryo who survives IVF, nine will be destroyed in the IVF process.  


Research shows that while there were 413,776 successful IVF cycles, approximately 4,965,312 embryos (a.k.a. preborn children) were destroyed to achieve that level of “success.”    


This blatant ignorance costs millions of innocent lives. I urge our president to reverse this decision and to take time to fully understand the truth about IVF.    


The term embryo is simply a stage in a human being’s life. Embryo, fetus, infant, baby, toddler, teenager, adult: All are the same human being at different moments of life. And all are made in the image and likeness of God.  


These facts seem to be continuously ignored by our lawmakers, who ignorantly call IVF a pro-life action or celebrate "more babies."    


American Life League created this video that fully explains WHAT IVF is and WHY it is wrong.


Yours humbly in Christ,
