Atheist, thank you for showing your compassion toward others… ITS EVERYONES RIGHT TO KILL WHOMEVER THEY WANT

You said: “EVERYONE hates cancer, what motive would they have to keeping this in the dark?” 
Simple because Planned Parenthood and other abortion groups are making money off of abortion! An abortion can run from $400 to a few thousand, depending on the facility and how far the pregnancy is along. The same reason they would deny a link to breast cancer is the same reason they cover up sexual abuse, statutory rape, prostitution, sex trafficking of children, parental consent law violation, and why they present wrong medical information about the effects of abortion as well as about the pregnancy itself : They are making money off the bloody industry of abortions.

Regardless of whether or not abortion is connected to breast cancer, it has been proven to be connected to other health problems like infertility, psychological problems, even death etc. So even if breast cancer never turns out to be a result, there are still plenty of medical reasons for ending abortions.

On July 7, 2000 a paralegal in the Office of Corporation
Counsel at the national home office of the American Cancer Society e-mailed
our Coalition and made the following request:We
recently noticed that you posted outdated American Cancer Society information
(1996 Cancer Facts and Figures) on your web site regarding the effects of
abortion on breast cancer. We would appreciate if you would delete this
information since not (sic) longer current and may be misleading to the
public.

If you wish to post Society information regarding this topic,
please post the following: “Induced abortion: A large, recent study from Denmark
has provided very strong data that induced abortions have no overall effect on
the risk of breast cancer. Also, there is no evidence of a direct relationship
between breast cancer and spontaneous abortion (miscarriage) in most of the
studies that have been published.”
The American Cancer Society pretty clearly says that there is no evidence of a direct relationship.  I can see why it might happen in most cases but the ACS claims that overall there is no link.  Honestly I have no reason not to believe them (one of your sites claimed they are lying to us) and also see no reason why they withhold this type of info.  EVERYONE hates cancer, what motive would they have to keeping this in the dark? I’m inclined to believe the ACS but I guess all that conflicting info leaves me at a point where maybe I can’t form an opinion without looking at the lab data myself. 

As for the foster care thing:  I realize that it’s an intensive process but I’m sure there are not 200,000 or so people waiting for their forms to get through.  There are honestly too many kids without proper homes. 

As for birth control–>  Okay sure I can see where you are coming from.  In SOME instances birth control will stop an egg that has already been fertilized.  I guess my opinion of when a baby becomes a baby is not the same as yours.  To me a fertilized egg is just a fertilized egg on track to form a baby but not a baby yet.  I’m not sure when I would draw the line, maybe once the cells start differentiating.

As for your last point: I guess we have different definitions of “birth control” or at least different conotations.  While you look at with such disdain I guess I can see the neccesity.  Some people are not in the right place to have a baby.  Maybe they had a one night stand.  Maybe they are a teenager.  Maybe they are extremely poor or homeless.  Babys are blessings, yes, but they also come with A LOT of responsibilty and some people can’t handle that.  Again, does this give the mother the right to decide whether he child lives or not?  I’m not sure about that answer.  That is THE question.  But I do know that no mother does it flippantly or often.  No mother looks at abortion like their birth control pill.  No mother decides to do that without a lot of thought.  It’s an emotional process and I can understand why some woman would make that choice.  So yes, I guess a lot of women use it for “birth control” but that might not neccesarily be as bad as you think it is. Honestly, it really has everything to do with the context in which a woman decides to have an abortion. 

And you might say well why not adoption, and again with so many kids in foster/group homes not everyone would want to put a kid through that experience.  I know several kids that are emotionally screwed up due to being in foster homes.        

You should also know that all scientific studies are prone to error… not just ones related to the abortion/breast cancer link. For example, a few years back, there was a study on whether homosexuality is related to a person’s biology (implying that maybe people are “born this way”) and they claimed to find a link between something in the brains of professing homosexuals that favored this idea. However, looking at the information and data provided, even scientists who weren’t against homosexuality said the studies were completely biased and that they found virtually nothing that could relate biology to homosexuality. My point is that whenever a single study like this is done, you are going to find people who say that the study shows something and you will find people who say it shows nothing.

However, there have been an overwhelming amount of studies implicating that abortion raises risks for breast cancer and the explanation for it does make a lot of sense (see what I wrote two responses down where I countered your first argument, “#1. When a woman is pregnant, cells in her breast begin to multiply rapidly…”). Also, I have been to the Breast Cancer Prevention website and they claim that there most definitely IS a link between abortion and breast cancer. Go to http://www.bcpinstitute.org/resources.htm and there is an entire section of resources and brochures on the abortion breast cancer link. One good one in particular is http://www.bcpinstitute.org/brochure.htm . 27 out of 33 studies done from 1957-2000 have shown that abortion is related to an increased risk and 17 of those 27 show a SIGNIFICANT risk.

Another good link is http://www.abortionbreastcancer.com/The_Link.htm and I encourage anyone who is skeptical about the abortion breast cancer link to read it thoroughly. Towards the end, they list reasons why women are not being told this information and why some anti-cancer societies will deny any links between the two. Most of the reasons include being financially supported by pro-choice feminist organizations like Planned Parenthood. If you were being given loads of money by these organizations, would you dare to turn your back on them and imply to the public that the very “healthcare” they defend could be a risk factor for cancer?
