• Abortion opponents have attempted to link the procedure with breast cancer, but here again the scientific evidence undermines their claims....To believe otherwise is no more grounded in evidence that to believe that breast cancer is caused by power lines, or that the polio vaccine impedes virility, or that fluoridated drinking water triggers autism.
  • Jacob Appel, medical writer and columnist, Abortion: A Healthy Choice, Huffington Post October 11, 2009.

• We "need" cancer because, by the very fact of its incurability, it makes all other diseases, however virulent, not cancer.
