No one has given that article any credibility except the pro-lifers. The methodology has been discredited and is fatally flawed. Promoting it has no credibility and deserves none.

Happy to add to the confusion, eh Minotaur? I agree that the Lindefors-Harris article has no credibility and is fatally flawed, but why would pro-lifers give it any credibility? There is no valid evidence of any response bias in ABC link research; none.

The hostile response of those claiming there is no link between abortion and breast cancer is surprising, if not unprofessional.

If the science is as sound as they make out, such vehement reluctance to allow airing of studies that indicate otherwise, clearly suggests that their prime motive is to protect their vested interests.
