Reaction to "New contraceptives make menstrual period optional"

I was saddened by your article "New contraceptives make menstrual period optional" (Published on Page A1 of the May 24, 2006 issue of the Philippine Daily Inquirer). This time advocates of artificial contraception try to appeal to a very common aspiration among individuals, women and men alike, in a consumeristic society for less suffering and greater comforts.

Don't you realize that oral contraceptive pills taken at an early age on a regular basis and before the first full term pregnancy has an estimated increased risk of breast cancer of 40%? Studies conducted by Dr. Chris Kahlenborn have reached to this conclusion. If you want to view his study, click on the following URL: http://lifeissues.net/writers/kah/kah_10chap8canabor1.html

Dr. Chris Kahlenborn specializes in internal medicine and practices in Altoona, Pennsylvania. Dr. Kahlenborn has studied the epidemiology of breast cancer in relation to abortion and oral contraceptives for the past six years and has lectured in Canada, Russia, the Philippines, and China, in addition to testifying before the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). He writes and speaks extensively in the areas of breast cancer, with its links to Abortion and the pill; artificial contraception; In-Vitro fertilization; and the Chickenpox vaccine. He has a book published entitled, Breast Cancer: Its Link to Abortion and the Brith Control Pill.

It also significant to point out that interventions to the human reproductive system is not similar to cosmetic surgery. Our capability to reproduce has a supernatural and spiritual component. The organs and processes involved in forming a human embryo includes the action of God. Each human embryo formed or could be formed has a spiritual soul that comes from God only! We cannot treat our power to generate another human being at the same level as breast augmentation surgery!

Birth control pills and other hormonal contraceptives are actually poisons that could bring greater harm to future mothers than good!

I hope you will study more carefully and deeply the link between Oral Contraceptive Pill and Breast Cancer.

Thank you for your time and best regards.
