Allie Beth Stuckey: A Christian Perspective of In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)

“If we believe, as Christian pro-lifers, that these humans are made in the image of God… Then we shouldn’t be treating these little human beings like this.” ~Allie Beth Stuckey

There has been a lot of media buzz about in-vitro fertilization (IVF) in the wake of a recent Alabama state supreme court ruling which declares that frozen human embryos are human beings and are entitled to civil rights protections.

Now, there is no doubt that IVF has been a blessing to many women who have had fertility problems. Thanks to this wonderful medical technology there have been more than one million babies born in the U.S. using IVF – that’s approximately 60K babies born annually.

We celebrate these precious lives!

However, as Allie Beth Stuckey points out in this short video segment, Christians must pause to think deeply about the downside to IVF treatments.

If we believe that life begins at conception, and we know that an embryo is the initial stage of life, we should be concerned at how the corporate media is spinning this issue.

After all, each one of us started our lives as an embryo. The callous disregard of frozen human embryos is a pro-life issue that we should care about.
