HEALTH

Discoverer of HIV said the pill led to the AIDS epidemic
John-Henry Weston, LifeSiteNews, September 9, 2016

Nobel Prize winner Luc Montagnier.
In 1986, speaking at a press conference in Venezuela, Montagnier said the AIDS virus is "very old: we have blood samples from the 30s."
In the same press conference he stated the pill enabled the AIDS virus to spread suddenly to epidemic proportions.
How? By its effect of "causing a surge of promiscuity from the 60s to the 80s and promiscuity quickly leads to" homosexual sexual practices. [AIDS was primarily found in the homosexual community.]
Montagnier told Christine Vollmer, his interpreter at the time, that "[i]t is entirely possible" that the depopulation of Rome in the early centuries A.D. was related to AIDS.

HUMAN RIGHTS ABUSES

Midwife: Babies at 16-17 weeks survived abortions and were left to die
Sarah Terzo, Live Action, September 13, 2016

June 2015, "The European Center for Law and Justice released a document entitled 'Late Term Abortion & Neonatal Infanticide in Europe: Petition for the Rights of Newborns Surviving Their Abortion'."
"The document featured testimonies of midwives, medical students, and doctors who witnessed babies born alive after abortions gone wrong."
"These babies were either neglected and allowed to die without medical treatment or killed by the direct actions of medical staff."
25% of all children aborted at 16-17 weeks will survive the abortion and then be killed outside the womb.
Ironically, there are laws dealing with the humane killing of animals, including their fetuses, because they are "sentient" creatures that can feel pain.
Human babies can be killed by dismemberment and mutilation, but animals must be killed humanely.

(STUDY) Study links pill to decrease in ovarian cancer deaths, but...
Lisa Bourne, LifeSiteNews, September 9, 2016

[The World Health Organization (WHO) has classified the pill as a Group 1 carcinogen, the same group as arsenic and asbestos.]
The researchers also believe there could be other factors of causation such as: decrease in hormone replacement therapy (HRT), better diagnosis and treatment.
"Hormonal contraception still increases the risk of many other types of cancer" and other medical conditions though:
