I really wonder why the AMA (or equivalent) hasn't set some kind of guidelines
for in vitro fertilization.  I know, God gives babies to the poor and the
unemployed and even to those up in years, so why should we play holier than
God -- it's a good argument, and I'm not dismissing it.  But.......I'd still
like to see in vitro and other non-God methods of making babies reserved for
those who have some visible means of supporting the resulting children.  I
don't mean they need to be rich -- my mother wasn't rich and neither was I and
we raised our kids just fine (not easily, but well.)  But .........
