And were going to on the side of life old the side of dennis. Im going to on the side of life fold the side of dennis thats the real issue. Is clear the embryos and thats the real issue. It is clear that embryos are not treated as a legal person precisely for those concerns over what that would mean for procreated as a legal person precisely for those concerns over what that would mean for procreative rights and the rights of privacy. We discussed this sensitive stocks of rights and the rights of privacy. We discussed this sensitive story with a former judge just so and with womens rights advocate we separate with a former judge just so and with womens rights advocate Reese Everson i think they did it the right way because in this particular instance when your son. I think they did it the right way because in this particular instance when this family or when this this couple went to the clinic to you know do in vitro fertilization sparely or when these this couple went to the clinic to you know do in vitro fertilization they signed a contract agreeing to destroy the embryos ation they signed a contract agreeing to destroy the embryos if they decided to divorce and we even when we use the term preembryo and i guess if they decided to divorce and even when we use the term preembryo and i understand the court used that term its really semantic gymnastics its just another designation to try to stem the court use that term its really semantic gymnastics its just another designation to try to dehumanizing whats human there are thousands and thousands of these human embryo dehumanize whats human there are thousands and thousands of these human embryos in these i. V. s clinics all around the country and people know what to do with them in these clinics all around the country and people know what to do with them and it seems to me a commonsense approach should be why dont we give those children up for adoption to couples who want to seems to me a commonsense approach should be why dont we give those children up for adoption to couples who want them lets just give that child to someone else lets think about that in the large want them lets just give that child to someone else lets think about that in the larger scheme of things youre basically telling a mother im going to give your child a scheme of things youre basically telling a mother im going to give your child away and let someone else raise your child frankly i think its offensive way and let someone else raise your child frankly i think its offensive to the mother to say im going to take the egg that you created that she wanted to read to the mother to say im going to take the egg that you created that she wanted to raise and give it to someone else and allow them to raise a child that you havent decided to raise and give. To someone else and allow them to raise a child but you havent decided to create nobodys forcing anyone to do anything with the end result of what you know create nobodys forcing anyone to do anything with the end result of what you know my colleague the argument shes making is its better to destroy the my colleague the argument shes making is its better to destroy the embryo than allow someone else to raise it it just seems to me that theres no harm to the embryo then allow someone else to raise it it just seems to me that theres no harm to anyone allowing the father to take it and donate it there are federal programs anyone allowing the father to take it and donate it there are federal programs known federal centers that allow couples to quote unquote adopt these she went on federal centers that allow couples to quote unquote adopt these she would embryos and then use them in implantation and allow the child to grow people have the right to the embryos and then use them in implantation and allow the child to grow people have the right to decide and write on paper how they want their embryos treated if they die and write on paper how they want their embryos treated if they divorce and thats the right way to go we can not stray from their decision at that time divorce and thats the right way to go we can not stray from their decision at that time if we do we allow these contract to mean absolutely nothing if we look at this straight if we do we allow these contracts to mean absolutely nothing if we look at this strictly as a contractual matter i think that really leans more toward leans more trickery is a contractual matter i think that really leans more toward leans more towards seeing the human embryo is just a piece of property and and i just dont agree with that why cant we airport seeing the human embryo is just a piece of property and and i just dont agree with that why cant we err on the side of life again this is not a question where theres an egg and a sperm that havent been combined on the side of life. If again this is not a question where theres an egg and a sperm that have been combined theyve been combined a human embryo has been formed you know human life begins at mind and theyve been combined a human embryo has been formed you know human life begins at conception theres conception and then theres preconception and what the court conception there is conception and then theres preconception and what the court decided absolutely correct in this case was that these embryos are preconceived aside it absolutely correct in this case was that these embryos are preconception yes you have the sperm and yes you have the egg and yes they have combined to create an embryo adoption yes you have the sperm and yes you have the egg and yes they have combined to create an embryo i think its absolutely asinine it strips the right of the woman and the mother i think its absolutely asinine it strips the right of the woman and the mother or either parent frankly to create a child that these 2 parents are saying or either parent frankly to create a child that these 2 parents are saying we dont want this child to exist why do we have to destroy it what is the public we dont want this child to exist why do we have to destroy it what is the Public Policy in favor of that thats my point.
