According to the Respect Life Apostolate on the Archdiocese of St. Louis web page, the popular charity 'Susan G. Komen for the Cure' endorses embryonic stem cell research, which involves killing children at the embryonic stage of life in order to buy and sell the dead children's cells to various research organizations.
In addition, the organization's affiliates have given money to the nation's largest abortion clinic chain, Planned Parenthood. The money, earmarked for breast health screenings, frees up other funds for their other operations, including abortions, which are linked by a number of studies to increased rates of breast cancer. Do any women really want breast health screenings from an org. that increases the breast cancer rate???
So when you see the pink ribbon on some product in the store, promising that the product manufacturer will give money to the charity if you buy the product, you are being asked to financially support the killing of children.
Why isn't this public knowledge? Why doesn't the news media routinely refer to Komen for the Cure as a controversial organization and discuss the ESC and Planned Parenthood links? Maybe because the news media is no longer there to inform but to propagandize for a Certain Point of View?
I'd think it would be a good idea if some prolife organizations would start some letter-writing campaigns to the companies who put the pink ribbon on their products protesting their participation in this 'charity'.
(NOTE: breast cancer runs in my family. My grandmother had it, my mom had it, and for all I know I might have it right now. That's why I want breast cancer research funds spent on breast cancer research and not on killing embryonic children or funding Planned Parenthood. Remember, if by some miracle some disease cure is discovered from ESC research, that cure will only be of use to those who don't respect human life. The rest of us will have to wait until a less evil cure is discovered--- which will probably be very long in coming.)

I'm glad you're getting the word out. I didn't know they endorsed embryonic stem cell research. I had heard recently they donate to Planned Parenthood and I was sickened.
