An Ethical Inference on Artificial Conception
Countless married couples every year try unsuccessfully to have a
child. There are many explanations for the shortcomings of these
couple’s attempts, however, in many cases natural conception is
impossible. ...
Today, in light of modern scientific advancement, sterile couples have
another option: artificial conception. Recently, this branch of modern
science has become a sensitive subject because of its ethical
implications. ... To answer this
question, we must examine the ethical implications and conceivable
consequences of this practice.
The most common ethical objections to artificial conception are a
product of religious background. ... However, the happiness of infertile parents who
reap the benefits of technological assistance in conception is
indispensable in our considerations of the legitimacy of this practice. ...
I must concede that I can conceive of one objection to artificial
conception that could possibly be plausible.
