For those of you who believe that a person is created at the time of conception, what are your thoughts on in vitro fertilization?
Is it an issue for you? Or does it only count if it growing in a woman's body?

Of course it's a person, albeit one not created in a particularly 'natural' way.
IVF is not something, for instance, the Catholic Church recognises as licit (however horribly difficult that might be for some couples :( ). But that doesn't for a moment mean the person created in IVF isn't a person in the same manner and at the same time as anyone else!

@Pikachu for Catholics at least, that's one of the principal reasons to reject it!
