#622 IVF Is Not The Way--The False Promises of Artificial Procreation: With Stacy Trasancos, PH.D.

Love to hear from you; “Send us a Text Message” Dr. Stacey Trasancos never planned to write a book about IVF, but with President Trump promising to expand access to IVF, she felt compelled to explain why artificial reproduction conflicts with Christian teaching on human dignity and procreation.  The heart of the issue lies in what Trasancos calls the principle of inseparability—anything that divorces "lovemaking" from "life-giving" violates God"s design for human reproduction. While contraception suppresses the life-giving aspect, IVF eliminates the lovemaking component. This separation isn"t merely theological abstraction but has profound implications for how we understand human relationships and dignity. Most jarring is the revelation that between one and four million embryonic children are currently frozen in cryogenic storage in the United States alone. These living human beings exist in a state of suspended development, creating ethical dilemmas about their fate.  Ready to understand the deeper implications of reproductive technology? Listen now and discover why the technological ability to create life doesn"t automatically grant us the moral authority to do so.
