LOL...it’s called “LifeSite.” Of course it is “agenda-driven.”
Like a stolen car in a chop shop, humans are worth more for their parts than as a whole.
Ping....
Lifesite.net? Doesnt sound like a particularly reliable source,

This sort of thing has been going on for years, and will only get worse. It’s been going on quietly, and is a big money business. There are plenty of books published about this topic, check them out.

“the story appears to have been hugely exaggerated”
What do you base that statement on?
Of course we have no idea yet whether it’s true.
“I cannot believe that the pjysician had such evil intentions.”
Really?
Evil doctors are nothing new

This LifeSiteNews piece is pretty straight-forward because all it really does is report what’s in the lawsuit. I have seen other LSN “news” stories that exaggerate, slant or make commentary. It’s fine to send out PR or commentaries, just don’t pretend they’re “news.”

What's wrong with pro-life organizations, exactly?
“As Shea explained, people can be brought back to life even fifteen minutes after their heart has stopped beating.”
Never say never, but I’d have to think this would be EXTREMELY rare. Four or so minutes is usually considered the outside for brain damage and seven minutes for severe brain damage. Reality is that only a small percentage survive cardiac arrest, even with immediate help.
“All this is probably more than most of you wanted to know about the harvesting of organs but it gave the family some solace to know that their beloved son did not live and die for no reasonmany others live on because of all that they gave.”
Exactly.
Because in this case it looks like they’re in bed with the trial lawyers.
In what way?
If you can’t figure that out on your own, I believe we probably have no common ground on which to communicate reasonably.
They were holding diplomas saying MD but they were impostors. Those monsters were not, at any time, physicians.
I do believe you are correct. We have nothing in common.
