In his article ‘‘Research Priorities and the Future of Pregnancy’’ in this issue of CQ, Timothy Murphy evaluates some of the arguments I advanced in an earlier publication, ‘‘The Moral Imperative for Ectogenesis.’’ In this reply to Murphy’s article, I acknowledge some of his points and seek to show why some of his objections are not as powerful as he thinks. I start here by summarizing the argument put forward in my original article.
