I can't think of any Biblical justification for a woman not being allowed to raise a child alone. After all, if a wife conceives and then her husband dies immediately thereafter, the woman is still allowed to raise that child as her own.
Also, artificial insemination prevents the need to have premarital sex, so how could it possibly be a bad thing?
Of course, the act of masturbation is going to be sinful for the guy unless of course they use the "milk the prostate" method which requires no lustful thoughts (just a rubber gloves, some lubrication, and a skilled medical assistant with two well-trained fingers).
Because if you have a husband who dies you didn't choose for that to happen.
You're choosing to artificially inseminate yourself and raise a child without a father this way.
I don't know how anyone can possibly read the bible and conclude that it's okay just because the bible doesn't specifically say it isn't.
Everything about artificial insemination is unnatural and ranges from frowned upon to straight up evil depending on how insane of a religious fanatic you're talking to.
Not only is how it's done wrong but the result is a women impregnated by the semen of a man shes never met to raise a child without a father. None of this is what God wants.
If you've read the Bible and concluded that a biblical God doesn't mind artificial insemination you're either barely literate or insanely biased.
