I am not talking about any link to planned parenthood..
Didn’t you read my post to you???
I said the problem with Komen is that they don’t teach, inform or promote the Abortion and Breast Cancer link to abortion and by keeping that information secret, they are promoting breast cancer among women.
Abortion is the single most avoidable cause for Breast Cancer and Komen keeps that a secret.
If one supports Komen, they are support abortion, Komen is a pro-abortion organization.

Coleus, if you follow the logic in your post, then you would not be able very many investments, or money in the bank, etc. I have heard this kind of discussion before. If I donate money to Komen, I can say to myself, “well MY money goes to the breast research and the guy who is pro-abortion who donates, well HIS money is going to the abortion part of their dealings”) and the truth of it is that God ultimately owns everything and is sovereign.
I know people who have knocked other people for investing in a particular company’s stock if that company has some business streams that might not be Christ-centered or even totally against Christ, but then you have to think about your money in the bank and where that bank might be investing, or the mutual funds you are in that might have some questionable practices. If you buy ANY product you better check out the company that makes it and make sure they aren’t doing anything questionable or that their CEO isn’t some really evil guy. Moreover, any company that has set up shop in China is guilty of working with people who are in serious violation of humanity - not to mention persecution of Christians. So, do you buy anything ever made in China? Do you see how this line of thought can get so convoluted? I do.
I think that Komen needs to be up front about two issues: 1) that there is a strong link b/t abortion and breast cancer. The other posters on here have mentioned the hypocrisy of them not doing so and I agree. If they care about reducing the numbers of breast cancer victims, they really should be educating the public about all the information that is available.
2) They should be up front and honest about their financing of Planned Parenthood.
Other than that, I think they operate like millions of businesses - large and small - in this country.
