[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why (according to All-American Muslim) are IVF and other reproductive technology discouraged?

Are you expected to have a lot of kids?  How many is customary?[/quote]

Np here. This varies with culture as well. I come from an arab Muslim country where ivf is quite common. It was introduced in early 80s and after initial resistance has been mainstream. The first baby was born in 1987 (in country ivf) and sometime in mid 2000 there was a news story on it with the picture of 'ivf' born children. There was a lot of pride in the national ivf achievements :)  Also there is less conflict between science and religion, since there is thinking that if the technology is invented it must be with gods will.... The first time I heard of an issue with Darwin was when I came to the US a few years ago. It was always presented as a solid fact in textbooks.  But this is experience from one Muslim country, so in other cultures things may vary.[/quote]

The Koran says the earth is flat, with pillars at each end. God made Adam and Eve by forming mud.[/quote]
