In the UK for ten years the number of applications for legal recognition of parentage after surrogacy has almost doubled. Commercial surrogacy is banned in the UK. However, the British continue to apply for surrogate mothers abroad, and then draft parental rights at home. This is an example of how legal restrictions are not enough. Because the problem is much deeper, in society's world view. In the human model, the person himself determines the limits of what is allowed for his desires and abilities. Consequently, even the birth of a new life, which is a gift from God, becomes a service that money can buy. In a God-centered society everything is different. Man recognizes the power of God, lives according to his commandments, and understands that not everything that modern technology and money make possible is morally permissible. And the British example shows how important it is to move beyond legislation. This applies not only to surrogacy, but also to abortion and many other issues related to human life and the family. Laws must protect human life and the foundations of society. But if the very approach to human life does not change in the minds of men, if God's commandments do not become an internal moral guide, then prohibitions alone will not solve the problem. Therefore, it is necessary not only to change the law, but above all to return society to God.
