Donald Trump, who, while campaigning, had promised to make America fertile again, delivered his long-awaited fertility-policy announcements on October 16 from the Oval Office. “I think this is very pro-life. You can’t get more pro-life than this,” he said, referring to his efforts to make in vitro fertilization more accessible, thereby making clear to the few who still weren’t aware that the man does not know what pro-life means.
Unborn human life is innocent human life and deserves protection. In vitro fertilization creates innocent human lives that might be born as well as lives that will not see the light of day. There are such lives — human embryos, much more than cells in a petri dish — on ice right now.
