LifeSite’s updated, Oct. 5 version of the article, Pierre Trudeau – Father of Canada’s Permissive Society is now available.
A Scottish couple plans to use the UK’s newly accepted EU Human Rights Act to allow sex-selection of their next child with the use of in-vitro fertilization. Alan and Louise Masterton, from Monifieth, near Dundee, lost their only daughter Nicole in a bonfire accident and want to have a girl.
Another UK woman is going to the High Court to allow her to be implanted with five embryos at a time in fertility treatment. Current regulations in Britain only allow for the use of three embryos at a time, but she has been unsuccessful in maintaining the lives of the embryos already implanted and was advised by her doctor to try for five.
Commenting on the baby who was bred for spare parts for his sister with the use of in-vitro fertilization and genetic screening, the UK pro-life group Life said: “Adam was the 15th embryo which meant 14 people were killed before him. In essence, a white-coated technician brought this human into the world simply as the means to an end.” https://www.newsmax.com/articles/?a=2000/10/3/192344
