French church expresses concern over in vitro without father

Archbishop Pierre d'Ornellas, responsible for bioethics in the episcopate, issued an open letter to the French Prime minister Edouard Philippe.

France is opening to eugenics and, above all, is undermining the basic principle of equality. “From now on, the law decides that some of the children will be deprived of their father from conception,” says Archbishop d’Ornellas. 

“Whether civil law is entitled to order that some children will not have a father, will not have paternal ancestors. I challenge this, the power that civil law claims. In the name of what does civil law want to decide about it? Where do these permissions come from? We signed the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in Paris. The first article states that all people are born free and equal in their rights, (…) said Archbishop d’Ornellas to Vatican Radio.

Our law will no longer be in line with the Declaration of Human Rights, which we signed, because we will have children who will be born without a father. For me, having a father is a fundamental right. I am waiting for someone to prove that this is not a fundamental human right, ” added Archbishop d’Ornellas.
