That’s like claiming there is no link between smoking cigarettes and increased susceptibility to lung cancer because your uncle who was a two pack a day smoker all his long adult life did not get lung cancer.
No one claims that abortion “causes” breast cancer, only that abortion, especially abortion of a first pregnancy (for hormone driven physiological development reasons that make sense), has been shown statistically to result in greater SUSCEPTIBILITY to contracting breast cancer later in life. Nor has anyone claimed that all breast cancers are abortion related. Read carefully, then think, and then,if moved to do so, speak.
Good explanation.
Thank you.
You needed proof of that? It’s abortion over giving women information to make an informed decision, abortion over a parent’s right to raise their minor daughter, and you thought a woman’s health would present an obstacle?
I will more or less second the motion. I read the study. An objective person would have to admit that it was a flawed piece of work written by an author who does not come across as a dispassionate scientist.
When I argue a position, I stick to well-done studies. I would rather rely on six well-done studies than refer to 12, half of which have significant flaws.
There has to be better research on this question than this study.
That’s the one!
