It would seem that the Judeo-Christian standard would recognize any lending of one's sexual features (womb, semen or egg) to another person who was not one's lawful spouse--whether for pleasure or money--as adultery. It matters not whether this act takes place in bed or in a laboratory. As to the legality of surrogate parenting, the law will keep floundering as long as it operates without...
