Scientists: "Inefficient" sex will no longer be used to make babies in 10 years

Couples will stop having sex to conceive babies within a decade and use IVF instead, scientists said yesterday.
They say 30-somethings will increasingly rely on artificial methods of fertilisation because natural human reproduction is ‘fairly
inefficient’.
It means that in future, sex will be nothing more than a leisure activity - the latest blow to the Christian idea that the role of sex is to produce children.
If the experts are right, it means the sci-fi world of books such as Brave New World, in which all children are born in ‘hatcheries’, could
soon be closer to reality.
And it raises ethical questions over whether greater use of IVF will lead to eugenics, with couples screening out characteristics they
regard as undesirable.
The startling vision of the future comes from John Yovich, a veterinary doctor from Murdoch University in Perth, Australia.
He believes IVF can ease the pressure on couples who have delayed having children to pursue a career, because going for the test-tube option will be more effective than trying for a baby naturally.
Even young adults have no more than a one-in-four chance every month of reproducing through sex. Among the over-35s, this falls to one in
ten.
This compares to the near 100 per cent success rate that Dr Yovich believes will be possible with IVF within ten years..
Dr Yovich, co-author of a new report in the journal Reproductive BioMedicine, said: ‘Natural human reproduction is at best a fairly inefficient process.
‘Within the next five to ten years, couples approaching 40 will assess the IVF industry first when they want to have a baby.’ He based his hunch on the fact that in cattle, IVF works almost every time. He
said there was no reason that success rate could not be replicated in
humans.
His co-author, fellow Australian vet Gabor Vajta, said test-tube embryo production in cattle was 100 times more efficient than natural means. He said there was no reason why IVF in humans should not become
100 times more efficient than sex.
At present, IVF has only a 50 per cent success rate - among the most healthy couples.
Gedis Grudzinskas, a Harley Street infertility specialist, said: ‘It wouldn’t surprise me if IVF does become significantly more efficient
than natural reproduction, but I doubt whether you could ever completely
guarantee that it would work.’
In Aldous Huxley’s 1932 novel Brave New World, human reproduction has been done away with and is replaced by a hatching process, in which
groups of identical children are produced from surgically-removed
ovaries and incubated in bottles.

Right on Tara, its a perversion of all that is natural, the opposite of God.

This Dr Yovick and his ideas comes right out of the pages of 'Brave New World.' It seems that they want to take the love out of sex and the sex out of love IMO. A lot of love goes into making a baby thus why we have called it making love for so many years. The end product is not always a baby but it's still making love. These crazy quack doctors are hell bent on destroying families, aren't they? What a crazy world we live in, YIKES!

"in future, sex will be nothing more than a leisure activity".
...and will be required to be listed as a taxable asset on all tax returns.

Right on KLC, I am sick of them too.

Fireguy, I agree brother! The word says that a man should find joy at his wife's breast, and Song of Solomon was one sexy letter/poem/ode!
The want to make God out to be a prude, I think not! He's the one that created all the connecting parts. And the end result of pleasure too!

I like girls who use chewing gum for birth control, and I'm already not using sex for reproduction.

"It means that in future, sex will be nothing more than a leisure activity - the latest blow to the Christian idea that the role of sex is to produce children."

What utter B.S. where in the Bible does it say that the role of sex is to produce children. I can't find that anywhere Old or New testament. These ice holes loose more credibility every time they open their mouths or write a sentence.
