Personal examination of rational thought

/in /by

Here is the situation: You and your partner cannot get pregnant by normal methods and you are considering in vitro fertilization as a possible method for conception. You are faced with a decision. You know that multiple embryos are matured for implantation, but some may be discarded. Is IVF the right thing to do? Is it ethically permissible in light of Kant’s deontology?
Please explain in detail why you believe the Categorical Imperative supports your view of the situation.

Directions:
Describe the ethical reasoning behind your argument for either pursuing IVF, or not having an IVF in light of the first two formulations of the Categorical Imperative. To remind you, the 1st formulation is Universal Law. The 2nd formulation is Humans as End in Themselves (don’t use others). Note that you will be making a moral argument that explains your rational reasoning in light of the categorical imperative formulations that are guiding you and your decision. In the end you should have:

Described the critical reasoning behind the decision you have made.
Explained why Deontological ethics applies to your decision about IVF.
Explored the ramifications of the choice you have made.
