I can't speak for him, but, no, I don't think that O'L was referring to the first option (aborted fetuses). I think he was referring to the existance of "test tube" embryos. And it is a questionable practice.

There is a certain rich irony in this controversy (that, as one intimately involved with many pro-lifers, I'm aware of). It was so many James Dobson-type pro-lifers who were so hell-bent on giving the ability to have children (the highest goal of man, by their reckoning), that overlooked the probability that something ..... anything ... other that birth was BOUND to be the fate of (and this is the rich part) MOST of the embryos produced by the process. (and here's the irony) While it was those very Dobson-like folk who were the most adamant about when life began (at conception).

I know that doesn't scan well. I'm too lazy to re-write it.

For the record, I think it's abominable to harvest babies for others well-being.
