Apparently, the State of Alabama Supreme Court ruled that it considered unfertilized eggs of women as children, so UAB has paused fertility treatments..
UAB is allowed to retrieve the eggs and even freeze them, but they cannot combine them with the father's sperm in the lab/develop them, and then insert them into the mother's uterus, or they face criminal charges.
What is the basis for this ruling - because they think God should combine them instead of humans in a lab and then insert them in the uterus or-?
Okay - but y'all think God would be A-OK with retrieving and freezing a "child" for later use? 😂
Oh, but wait, never mind - because you can't use them later, that's the illegal part.
So why the hell would freezing eggs be okay, then?
Because some backwoods evangelical preacher wants to "increase in number" by personally fertilizing the eggs and inserting them himself? 😂
That is the most absurd and asinine court ruling that I've heard yet, regarding women's health from the religious right.
If that were true, then we women would lose a child every month when we menstruate!
And what about 9-year-olds that start their period, are they losing children?
Well, that'll be news to my 55-year-old uterus, who is just finishing menopause and sometimes still bleeds, that my eggs are automatically still viable children.
Does that also mean every time we eat chicken eggs, we're eating baby chicks?
I don't think so. The eggs must be fertilized by the rooster first.
No word yet on whether or not a man's sperm is also considered a child, of course, just women.
Y'all realize none of this makes any sense, right?
And I'm pretty sure you all can't speak for God like you think you can, and in fact, it's the epitome of arrogance for you to even try.
Oh, Lordy, Alabama, you're more backwoods and ignorant than we Kentuckians ever even thought of being, and that's saying a lot.
These couples are trying to have a child, not abort one, you idiots!
Why do politicians/the government now also get to decide how and when couples get pregnant?
And here's something you'll understand - fertility treatments are one of the few money-making/profitable procedures you can undergo - you prepared for that much loss in revenue (and thus taxes) to state university hospitals?
God deliver us from their short-sighted, narrow-minded, Dark-Age ignorance!
I'm so embarrassed for them - because not only do they not seem to understand how the female body even works, nor how these treatments work, but because they're too ignorant to even know they should be embarrassed!
