Treating embryos
Tuesday, 12 October, 2004
This is an interesting article about embryos and a study about clinics in America that deal with IVF:
... certain details in the study show how torn clinic staffers can be about their job. Seven of the clinics that disposed of embryos actually held ceremonies over them, all of which included prayer. Another seven cultured the embryos and allowed them to develop as long as they could outside the womb before disposing of them.

That strikes me as sad. I always wondered who would work for an abortion/IVF clinic…I figured they must all be very pro-IVF or whatever, because they’d be dealing with disposable embryos all day long. The image of a clinic worker praying over the dead children is one that is both poignant and futile.
