A landmark Alabama Supreme Court ruling sent shockwaves throughout the nation on Friday. In a 7-2 decision, the justices ruled that embryos created through means like in-vitro fertilization (IVF) are “minor children” under the state’s Wrongful Death of a Minor Act. This sent Democrats — and a few Republicans — into a tizzy trying to protect the IVF industry. However, the ruling has little to do with IVF and everything to do with the value of life.
