Surrogacy never felt quite right to me, which is why this article is so refreshing. It helps articulate that uneasiness I felt with the concept. Thanks for taking the time to write and share this.

I feel this is just another way to exploit the poor. But ask another question. Why are they poor? So much is because those richer have become increasingly greedy. They demand a higher and higher standard of living for themselves. This can only be accomplished by charging higher prices for whatever they are selling, paying lower wages to those who work for them, or changing the tax codes.

Yes, Hagar had a baby "for" Abraham and Sarah, but she kept Ishmael. Bilhah had a babies "for" Jacob and Rachel, but she kept Dan and Naphtali. Zilpah had a babies "for" Leah, but she kept Gad and Asher. The Biblical "surrogate pregnancies" were not like modern ones.
