[In a thread about "embryo adoption"]

The Church does teach that surrogacy is morally wrong. This interferes with the natural process of God's creation. A life formed in the marital act of a loving husband and wife. Anything outside of this is morally unacceptable.

Although adoption and implatation is a solution, it's not a morally justifiable solution and it doesn't seem likely the Church will accept this. The reason we don't have an answer from the Church is because it's a very complicated issue. Human beings are playing God with lives, such injustice is difficult to reach a good solution.

The injustice to these embryos is that they are frozen and the moral thing to do is remove from the frozen state, to restore their human dignity. Although this would lead to their death, death would not be the intent, only the result of the injustice they already recieved by being imorally created. They would be like martyrs. This is more likely the way it will have to be. It's difficult to understand and if the Church goes this way, they will get beat up on it.
