There has been confusion of late concerning the World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) listing for their Group 1 Carcinogens, including several forms of oral contraceptives and estrogen replacement therapy. The confusion has arisen because the original link by WHO has been changed. After some sleuthing, here is a treasure trove [...]

Nancy Brinker: The Press Conference That Never Happened
Posted in Breast Cancer, Planned Parenthood, tagged Nancy Brinker, Press Conference, Susan G. Komen on February 10, 2012 | 5 Comments »
Q: Ms. Brinker, can you explain why you’re ending your longstanding relationship with Planned Parenthood? Brinker: I don’t think that’s an entirely accurate depiction of what has happened. The Komen Foundation has provided funding to Planned Parenthood for the purpose of providing breast screenings. Planned Parenthood performs palpations of the breast, manually feeling for lumps. [...]
Planned Parenthood, Komen, and Breast Cancer
Posted in Breast Cancer, Planned Parenthood, tagged Komen, Planned Partenthood on February 7, 2012 | 17 Comments »
In the ongoing discussion about Komen funding for Planned Parenthood, it is essential that people understand the central issue, which is Komen funding an organization whose activities actually contribute to the incidence of breast cancer. One commenter on yesterday’s post, Dave Bunnell, left a very succinct statement with a perfect analogy to capture the essence [...]
Why Did Planned Parenthood Do It?
Posted in Abortion, Breast Cancer, Planned Parenthood, tagged Brinker, Komen, Planned Parenthood on February 6, 2012 | 18 Comments »
Of the many incongruities arising from last week’s savaging of the Susan G. Komen Foundation by Planned Parenthood and its minions, the greatest single seeming incongruity is the disproportionate attack on Komen in light of the paltry sum of money involved. Planned Parenthood is a $1 Billion per year organization who stood to lose $600,000 [...]

1 Jesus entered Jericho and was passing through. 2 A man was there by the name of Zacchaeus; he was a chief tax collector and was wealthy. 3 He wanted to see who Jesus was, but because he was short he could not see over the crowd. 4 So he ran ahead and climbed a [...]

Dear Ms. Brinker, As one who has been at odds with SGK over your organization’s funding of Planned Parenthood, I write today to offer you my heartfelt gratitude and congratulations for the principled and prudential position that you have taken in defunding Planned Parenthood.

The first paper I ever wrote in graduate school was a review of the literature on Leprosy. It is a disease transmitted by contact that we now know to be caused by a close first cousin of the bacterium that causes tuberculosis, and can be cured using the same antibiotics that we use against TB.

Science, Demography, and Racism

In the uproar this past week over the Life Always billboard in New York City, carrying the message that the most dangerous place for an African American is in the womb, the most common denunciation was that the billboard was “racist.” But was it? In fairness, it’s understandable how the person on the street, looking [...]

Lying about Breast Cancer: What’s in a Number?

When scientists are so ideologically driven that they are willing to deceive themselves, that’s a tragedy. When scientists are so ideologically driven that they are willing to deceive the public, that’s criminal. In our ongoing study of the abortion/breast cancer link we have seen how the epidemiologists reject increased risk (which arises from an actual [...]

My apologies for the weeklong absence. I’ve been under the weather and will be playing catch-up all week. Today we consider a prospective study out of Harvard, involving 105,716 women, which declares no association between induced abortion and breast cancer. We shall consider several other of these ‘gold standard’ studies which indicate no link between [...]
