“Follow the Money.” Just when chief judge Tom Parker and his brethren of the Alabama Supreme Court hand down a win for preborn children even as human embryos, the IVF fertility clinic forces are lobbying the Alabama legislature to keep in place the status quo on how they go about in vitro fertilization.
This would be an ideal time for the Alabama legislature to pass Dr. Jerome Lejeune’s (the world dean of geneticists) Proposal of Law (link at the end of this article).
Article 3 of his proposal provides in pertinent part:
“No human embryo can be submitted to any exploitation whatsoever. The pursuit of its continued development until its term, in the organism of its mother, must be offered to each embryo before another embryo is conceived.”
“Follow the money.” IVF clinics want to keep doing what they have been doing – giving the wife hyper-ovulating drugs so that she produces multiple eggs at the same time and then fertilizing these multiple eggs with the husband’s sperm and then freezing the ‘leftover’ very tiny children ostensibly for the couple to come back at a later time if they choose to have another child or children.
The IVF clinics offer a ‘discount’ for the IVF procedure if the wife will agree to donate her ‘spare’ embryos to ‘science’. There is a price on the heads of these little ones because the IVF clinics sell them for the denatured biology of human embryo experimentation.
Dr. Lejeune put it well when he said, “It is not good to make ‘spare’ children.” And it is certainly not good to sell ‘spare’ children to be vivisected in the experimenter’s lab for which experimenters receive huge grants on the promise that there will come from human embryo stem cell experimentation remedies for human maladies and disease.
Dr. Bill Hogan has told us that not a person on the planet has ever benefited from human embryo stem cell experimentation. The hope lies with adult stem cell experimentation (stem cells extracted from the patient as with a mere small scraping of skin cells from the arm which does not kill the human being). Technicians then manipulate these adult stem cells and inject them back into the patient from whom they came and therefore they are not rejected by the patient.
The money making IVF forces will now lobby the Alabama legislature on bended knee with an emotional appeal, “Oh, please pass a law that ensures our right to help these poor infertile couples to conceive and have a child.”
If this is truly their goal, the passage of Dr. Lejeune’s Proposal of Law ensures that. If they come up with multiple technical reasons why this will hamper IVF clinics helping infertile couples there is every reason to be suspect. Follow the money.
Alabama, God bless you and God bless the Alabama Supreme Court. You are leading the nation on the good cause of children yet to be. Lead on!
Yours very sincerely and respectfully,
R. Martin Palmer
