This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

This is clearly a case of "just because we can doesn't mean we should". Sounds like a really bad idea to create life from sperm that doesn't even move. Some people are just not meant to have kids and should come to terms with it instead of passing their own problems on to the next generation. I think it's selfish. Also it's not like there aren't enough people already, adopt and give a good life to a healthy child that otherwise wouldn't have a future.
I actually find the nanobot something crazy. Regarding the "artificial insemination" question, I guess only those having such problems should speak. Just like the abortion question.
Mmm, we're not talking about money but personal choices. Do you want me to criticize your life ? Tell me about it and I'll do if you like
Nobody should be criticised for being infertile because it is not a personal choice.
Easing evolutionary pressure on a species should not be a personal choice and must be criticised.
So pls stop taking any medicine, nature decided you should die earlier without any cure. It shouldn't be a personal choice to stay alive according to your view. Com'on
You can’t equate a treatment that restores correct operation of an individual to one that potentially increases infertility in the population.
You're sperm might be slow just because you're a bit old, you know ? Now you'll say you don't have to have children if you're old, right?
