    I was an IVF baby.
    I have a soul.
    My parents loved me.
    They are still married.

    when did we collectively, as a society, agree that souls actually exist?? didn’t philosophers and scientists spend like a cumulative 1000 years arguing over this & doing dumbass experiments like weighing people before and after they died, only to come to the conclusion that - if souls do exist - they are ephemeral and cannot be observed??!?! save me Kant save me it-is-happening-again

      Qualia/consciousness is still weird and very hard to pin down in a laboratory environment while at the same time being the one immediate thing we as living beings are personally aware of, whatever it means.

      Souls are woo and bad people throughout history have assigned or disavowed them depending on who they want to uplift, or kill.

      31% of the world’s population are Christian, 25% are Muslim, 15% are Hindu, that right there is 71% of the world’s population that believe not only in souls, but in immortal souls that continue after death. Plus all the other religions that have souls, or people who aren’t particularly religious or spiritual but believe in souls. We as a society have collectively always accepted the existence of souls, and soulless atheist heathens (no value judgment) have always been a minority.

            The Oro is an orb released upon death of a Tenno in Conclave’s Annihilation and Team Annihilation mode. As Teshin describes it, it prevents any living being who possesses it from dying.

            Ah yes. Of course.

    Well the Catholic Church has been against IVF for decades so yeah wouldn’t surprise me if it gets traction in the anti-choice circles.

      Donum Vitae compares IVF to abortion, saying that “through these procedures, with apparently contrary purposes, life and death are subjected to the decision of man, who thus sets himself up as the giver of life and death by decree.”

      Yes, as opposed to sex which just happens spontaneously.

        Modern Catholic ideology gets really hung up on the idea that God’s dice roll needs to be an integral part of the reproductive process and anything that interferes with that (contraceptives, abortion, IVF) is an abomination. They’re literally doing the “I consent! I consent! … I didn’t” meme.

      Skill issue, just use reincarnation. When I was young, I saw an earth day promo about recycling and then had the theory that reincarnation was created because souls were a non-renewable resource.
