Ah, reasoned debate? Sorry my bad, what I meant was 'pressumption debate'  |
Now that point *is* beyond me since I have no idea what you're talking about.

Bad analogy on your part really - I was talking about the power of creating life. Sustaining life (ie medicine) is a different matter.

Hmm, so what about IVF?

We ,as a race, try things. We make mistakes. Hopefully we learn from those mistakes. |

I think part of the problem is people tend to assume they have a RIGHT to a baby. It's not a right, it's a privilige. Although I can understand that is hard for people to understand.

You're right, I *do* find that hard to understand.
How exactly is having babies *not* a right?
I've not heard of any cases of someone being *denied* the right to have babies, not even people who have eg congenital diseases, except in certain totalitarian regimes.
