The Southern Baptist Convention (SBC), a prominent Evangelical Christian denomination in the US, recently formalized its opposition to in vitro fertilization (IVF). They passed a resolution citing concerns over the destruction of human embryos during the IVF process. While acknowledging the pain of infertility and the desire for children, the SBC urged couples to consider ethical implications and seek alternatives like adoption. IVF has sparked debate among Republicans following changes in abortion laws, as it involves fertilizing multiple embryos, some of which may be discarded or frozen indefinitely.
