BOGUS Scientists Say Catholic Nuns Should Take Birth Control | TheBlaze.com

Scientists Say Catholic Nuns Should Take Birth Control | TheBlaze.com.

Your friendly pharmer got  a call from EWTN today regarding This  ‘Nonscience’,  by Kara Britt and Roger Short.

The quality of this Lancet article is comparable to the those  in the Journal of Irreproducible Results, a hilarious research PARODY journal, which entertains science nerds such as this one.  One does not expect parody or satire in the Lancet.  But, yes it sometimes contains garbage.

First of all, the increased incidence of breast cancer was highlighted uppermost in the illustrations of the article  in question, though the pill does not protect against this disease.

Second of all, according to the authors themselves, the nuns show less than or equal risk of ovarian and uterine cancer than the general population  until AFTER age 70.

Third, the lower doses hormone replacement therapy, which used to be given to reduce the risk of such disorders has been largely discontinued, except for short term use for menopausal symptoms, because it was not efficacious as a preventative.

Fourth,  the birth control pills are associated with thromboembolism and stroke to a much higher degree than the pharmaceutical regulatory bodies are apparently  aware, because such associations so often go unreported.

Pharmer  could go on past  number ninety nine  until the readers  are bored to tears.
There is extremely poor analysis of risk vs benefit in this article, and this has generated  one more  insane recommendation of preventative “medicine”.

 The detrimental advice in the Lancet  leads to a burning question:
Did these two authors get whacked with a ruler by nuns in grade school?

A Leftie is Complaining that Bart Stupak Would Not Consult the Nuns.

~ Pharmer

Dropped this at Legal Sleaze because Jodi Jacobson is bumming-out  that Bart Stupak won’t consult with the pro-choice nuns.

Let’s remember Who is attacking Bart Stupak.    The leftist side.

It was interesting to hear a Democrat say he doesn’t go to the nuns  for info on drafting pro-life legislation.
This is actually because the most vocal and   politicized among them are not pro-life.  The media does not interview pro-life nuns.

I would not go to most of  the Americans who claim to be Catholic for pro-life information and political assistance.
This is because many of them are democrats who naively believe that health care can be handed over to a corrupt institution  (the U.S. government)  and expected to improve.  Also, many are not pro-life.

Stupak, ever a democrat,  believes that the health care debacle can be sold by removing language allowing government funding of abortion.  This is a joke.
With  existing socialized systems,  abortion has been mandated by the lack of health coverage and treatment for those with untoward fetal diagnoses.   The mother is told that she should abort the baby with congenital defects.   Also, women who are raped, or who receive risky medications are told that they SHOULD abort.  Many would prefer not to.

If abortion funding is removed from Obamacare,  by necessity of cost cutting, there will remain the unfunded mandate of abortion.

The current leftist ideology and template for girls and women is that they should be available for sex at a young age, and  have abortions early and often, thereby functioning as  good and convenient sexual utilities.   Yes, the functioning is expected to be similar to that of electrical wall sockets.   Most American  leftists actually  hate the life-bearing aspect of women.  (Years of  testing and observation  back this contention.) These same people  also hate traditional Catholic teaching which has assigned the highest rank and honor  among humans to Mary, the Mother of Jesus.

The ‘brave new world’ for women under leftist care will be little better than life under the Taliban.

*** addendum :  Stupak can add   this group of sisters to his phone list.   Here’s their full web site.

Hey Sisters Take a Look!

This one comes from Life News!

Congressman Bart Stupak also responded to the letter and refuted it.

“When I’m drafting right to life language, I don’t call up the nuns,” he said, adding that he relies on truly pro-life groups like “leading bishops, Focus on the Family, and The National Right to Life Committee.

Did you catch that??

This is where those  59 ‘nuns gone wild’ have gotten you, with their errant behavior and support of Obamacare and the abortion mandates, which will eventually come with it.

Rep Stupak himself is playing a bit of a shell game with the illusion that merely removing abortion funding will remove the threat of abortion coercion, which has always accompanied other socialized medicine programs. But even he feels comfortable dissing the nuns on the issue of pro-life government legislation.

In the same Lifenews  report is refutation of the AP claim  which Pharmer previously discounted, that 59,000 nuns were represented by the 59 leaders.

The Bishops have felt the pressure from the Vatican, and from more adherent Catholic lay people regarding Obama care and are now running newspaper ads against Obamacare.

Pharmer will repeat until blue in the face…… Planned Parenthood Federation personnel  are near the point of  simultaneous climax, thinking about all the new abortion business which will be brought by government health care.   You have heard  NO objections from NARAL, planned unparenthood and the feminazis, concerning Obamacare, the Senate Edition.   This is because it guarantees extensive support for abortion, and their industry looks forward to massive growth, which the Guttmacher Institute estimates as a  30 percent increase in abortions.

Sisters,  it is time for you to put  these nutty nuns, who have signed on to the looming Obamanation, out to pasture.    Ethically  intemperate religious orders will continue to shrink in size, if this leadership problem is not addressed.

Addendum……..  a  statement on health care, ignored by the mainstream media, from the Council of  Majors Superior of Women Religious, who represent about 10,000 sisters, and who still have applicants wanting to join their orders.
