By Dr. Jeff Mirus, Catholic Culture - Vice President Vance offered an impressive profession of faith at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington, DC on February 20th. At the same time, he is a key part of President Donald Trump’s push to increase access to in vitro fertilization. You would think that after sparring with Pope Francis over the concept of ordo amoris (properly ordered love), Vance could do a better job of sorting out his moral priorities... In vitro fertilization1 is a laboratory process of creating a human embryo by using male sperm to fertilize female ova completely independently of the marital act. The marital act is by both nature and grace ordered to procreation through the marital embrace of husband and wife.
