NP. Injecting sperm into the woman's body with "turkey baster" is very different than extracting eggs and creating an embryo in a petri dish in the lab "in vitro", as the name says. He really should be more precise. Women have used a turkey battery for centuries to get pregnant, see for example Jackie Kennedy's mother for her two last pregnancies. |
Are you going to treat both of them the same morally, or is one going to be treated differently, you silly pedant? |
Congratulations. You are part of the .05% of people outside of fertility doctors to know this. |

It is ridiculous to think that being a high school sports coach prepares in any way to serve as a VP.
Lately I've been watching some political shows like "Madam Secretary ". It is striking that in real life we can't expect even remotely the level of competence exhibited by those characters. Sadly, the show writers would make a better ticket than the current shameful offering. |
If you think taking a pipette and inserting sperm into a woman’s uterus is no different than giving her drugs to stimulate the ovaries, putting her under and harvesting the eggs when they’re ready, injecting the egg with sperm in a lab, waiting until they divide enough to be implanted, choosing the best ones, freezing the rest, and then going back in and implanting the embryo in the woman’s uterus, then there is literally no rational conversation to be had here. None. |
I know, right? Trump was never remotely qualified, and Vance has done absolutely nothing with his time. Pop ole RFKJ on top like the crazypants cherry, and you've got a real embarrassment of a political sundae. At least Harris has VPOTUS experience, and Walz governed a state. |
I hope you learned something then. They are vastly different. I can literally do one in my house. The other involves surgical procedures and a lab. They are not even remotely the same. |
It is ridiculous to ignore his experience in the House of Representatives and as a twice elected governor of Minnesota. But you are not serious, are you? |
Yeah, so again, are you going to treat the fertilized products of these conceptions the same, or ... ? |
What a bizarre interpretation. His 6 years as governor and 12 years in the House make his eminently more qualified than, say, JD Vance. His coaching and teaching experience are nice bonuses that speak to his interpersonal skills and commitment to service. |
How about serving as governor of a state that produced US$472 billion of gross domestic product in 2023? |
Pedant? You are clearly scientifically illiterate if you think I’m being pedantic pointing out the differences. The only way they are similar is they result in a baby. Other than that, two extremely different procedures. |
They’re both babies. I don’t see your point. Are the republicans trying to ban IUI specifically? |
Sure thing. So are you going to treat the result of each of these processes as morally the same, or not? |
Anyone? |
