As for interfering with the natural order, surely this happens every time we have a vaccination or operation allowing us to survive some medical catastrophy that a few centuries ago would have meant death.
Manipulation of a life even before it has been created is IMO a far cry from vaccination after it came in to being. Although children are our responsibility, surely we do NOT have the right to make such a big decision on their behalf. We do not have the right or moral ability to interfere with God's natural/Mother Nature's plans for us.
