520 |a This paper entitled, Theological Moral Appraisal of the Challenges of Infertility Treatments on Christian Families in Africa seeks to explore the effects of infertility treatments on Christian families in Africa. It also attempts to give appraisal of the activities of birth science and issues surrounding it and proffer some ways forward for its better use to enhance the dignity of humans and safeguard our families. This is because many Christian families in Africa have deviated from the commands of the creator in an attempt to find solution to the problem of infertility that has engulfed many families, with the assistant of the modern reproductive technology. Many Christian families in Africa have broken down, the sacramental nature and the dignity of Christian marriage and family have been relegated to the background; and many legal, moral and social problems from these techniques abound. In this situation, some people are calling on the Church to condemn outright the use of the modern reproductive technology. But this will not solve the problem of infertility which is staring us calling for solution. Some scholars have pointed out that the advent of reproductive technology has come to stay, and that it has already given smiles to many faces and families. This paper employs descriptive, analytical and social methods. The paper argues that Science should not be devoid of Religion. There must be a link between Science and Religion as the creator intended. This will enable the activities in birth science to be in line with the mind of the creator. When this is done as it should, our families and society are spared and the dignity human person respected. Science and Religion are not at war, instead they are meant to serve humans. They are complementary and should always be in partnership to serve humanity.
