(A4e3e) cannibalism
Cannibalism by any other name is still cannibalism, whether it is eating the "long pig" in Melanesia, eating human flesh in satanic rituals, buying or selling children in South America to use their body parts, eating aborted chilren in China for "health" reasons or creating human beings to be used in stem cell research in the United States of America. Abortion is the fruit of contraception and cannibalism is the fruit of abortion.

******* RYAZAN, Russia -- At first sight it could have been a carefree family outing. Five-year-old Andrei Tkachyov could barely contain his excitement as he left home last month with his grandmother and uncle, dressed in his best
clothes and with his hair well combed. They told him they were going to
Disneyland.
******* Less than an hour later Andrei's grandmother, Nina Tkachyova, 55, and his uncle, Sergei Tkachyov, 30, were seized by plain-clothes policemen. They
were accused of trying to sell the boy to an officer posing as a trafficker
in human organs.
******* A police video shows the pair pocketing $140,000 Cdn after handing over
Andrei, together with his birth certificate and medical records and a
document in which his mother officially renounced all claims on him. Andrei
sits alone, sobbing.
******* ``At first I simply couldn't believe this,'' said Yuri Tereshkin, the state prosecutor handling the case. ``How could this family bring itself to sell a five-year-old defenceless child? It is such a shocking case that it has been difficult to find a lawyer prepared to defend these people.''
******* Police were first tipped off about Tkachyova's plans last summer while
investigating illegal adoptions. After hearing she was looking for a buyer,
they decided to approach her, posing as middlemen with links to the ``organ
mafia.''
******* ``We had no chance of following her every move to try catching her and a buyer,'' said Tereshkin. ``It could have taken months and she might have
tried to sell Andrei in Moscow. We were scared of losing him. So we decided on a sting.''
******* In the weeks that followed, Tkachyova, a market trader, had several
meetings with a man she knew only as Igor, unaware that he was an undercover policeman.
******* She showed him photographs of her grandson. Tkachyova assured Igor that
nobody would look for Andrei if he vanished.
******* Igor at first offered $65,000. She refused and demanded twice that amount, in cash.

******* item 3 ADULT STEM CELLS CAN SAVE LIVES WITHOUT SACRIFICING LIVES
******* Source: Christian Medical Association; March 5, 2002
******* Washington, DC -- Human research cloning advocates at a Senate hearing
today pushed for laws allowing the cloning and destruction of human embryos for their stem cells. However, the nation's largest faith-based physicians' organization contends that the ethical alternative of adult stem cell research provides the best hope for saving lives
******* Christian Medical Association Executive Director David Stevens, MD
observed, "Scientific breakthroughs in adult stem cell research have proven that we can save lives without sacrificing lives. Adult stem cell research at the University of Minnesota, for example, recently revealed what is described as possibly the 'most important cell ever discovered.'
******* That research shows that contrary to the tireless assertions of
embryonic stem cell research advocates, adult stem cells can actually turn into
every single tissue in the body.
******* "Adult stem cells are already saving the lives of patients, with even
more therapeutic applications on the way," Dr. Stevens added. "As many had
rightly predicted, adult stem cells are proving to be the avenues to
providing real cures for real people.
******* "One might wonder why some researchers and advocacy groups continue to
push the increasingly discredited theory of embryonic stem cell superiority. The mystery becomes clearer when one realizes that these 'experts' have gone out on a limb predicting incredible therapies, with none to show to date. Their employers and sponsors have also gone out on a financial limb by unwisely wrapping venture capital around embryonic stem cells. If they're looking for a stock market return, they'd better cut their losses and invest where the real action is -- in adult stem cells."

******* Dear Dr. Joseph,
******* The top of the front page of the December 11 National Post gave a reference to Barbara Amiel's article on caniballism. I turned to page 16 and read the article.
******* Of interest in Barbara's article was her questioning of the inconsistencies in the laws regulating sexual behaviour. What strikes me is that the thrust of her arguments leads one to question the logic and
consistency, if any, behind the prohibitions against cannibalism.
******* I regret that it may indeed be true that the acceptance of sodomy opens the floodgates to any and all sexual perversions, and even worse, if that's
possible.

******* item 6 ANN COULTER ON THE "RIGHT TO CANNIBALISM"
******* The follwoing is an excerpt from Ann's December 3, 2003 article "Supreme Court Opinions Not Private Enough
******* In the past few years, federal courts have proclaimed a right to sodomy (not in the Constitution), a right to partial-birth abortion (not in the Constitution), a right not to have a Democratic governor recalled (not in the Constitution), a right not to gaze upon the Ten Commandments in an Alabama courthouse (not in the Constitution), a ban on the words "under God" in the Pledge of Allegiance (not in the Constitution), and a ban on voluntary student prayers at high-school football games (not in the Constitution).
******* These bizarre rulings illustrate the notion of the Constitution as a "living document," one which rejects timeless moral principles so as to better reflect the storylines in this week's episode of "Ally McBeal." You may like or dislike the end result of these rulings, but � as subtly alluded to above � none of these rulings come from anything written in the Constitution.
******* In response to the court's sodomy ruling last term, conservatives are talking about passing a constitutional amendment defining marriage as between a man and a woman. It's really touching how conservatives keep trying to figure out what constitutional mechanisms are available to force the courts to acknowledge the existence of the Constitution. But what is the point of a constitutional amendment when judges won't read the Constitution we already have? What will the amendment say? "OK, no fooling around � we really mean it this time!"
******* While conservatives keep pretending we live in a democracy, liberals are operating on the rule of the jungle. The idea of the rule of law is that if your daughter is raped and murdered, you won't go out and kill the guy who did it. In return for your forbearance, you get to vote for the rulers who will see that justice is done. But liberals cheat. They won't let us vote on an increasingly large number of issues by defining the entire universe � abortion, gay marriage, high-school convocations � as a "constitutional" issue.
******* In what weird parallel universe would Americans vote for abortion on demand, affirmative action, forced busing, licensing of gun owners and a ban on the death penalty? Whatever dangers lurk in a self-governing democracy, the American people have never, ever passed a law that led to the murder of 30 million unborn children.
******* Judges are not our dictators. The only reason the nation defers to rulings of the Supreme Court is because of the very Constitution the justices choose to ignore. At what point has the court made itself so ridiculous that we ignore it? What if the Supreme Court finds a constitutional right to cannibalism? How about fascism? Does the nation respond by passing a constitutional amendment clearly articulating that there is no right to cannibalism or fascism in the Constitution?

******* Dear Ann,
******* I read "Supreme Court Opinions Not Private Enough" and quite liked it. Indeed the "right to cannibalism" is already here. President Bush, by funding research on embryonic stem cell lines, implicitly approves the killing of newly conceived human beings for the purpose of using their body parts for consumption by those of us who have survived the womb.

******* item 8 MICHAEL J. FOX IS A CANNIBAL
******* From: [email protected]
******* Date: Thu, 21 Oct 2004
******* By Jill Stanek
******* � 2004 WorldNetDaily.com
******* Michael J. Fox is a famous TV and movie star. He is witty. He is charming. A few years ago, we learned he has Parkinson's disease.
******* PD is a slowly progressive neurological disorder, characterized by tremors, shuffling gait, a masklike facial _expression, "pill rolling" of the fingers, drooling, intolerance to heat, oily skin, emotional instability and defective judgment (although intelligence is rarely impaired).
******* PD is currently incurable, although there are several methods to slow its advancement, including drug therapy and surgery.
******* PD is tragic, particularly in Fox's case, because it rarely afflicts persons under 60 years old.
******* Yet everyone faces tragedy at one time or another, in one form or another. A person's moral fiber is revealed in tragedy.
******* So we learned through Fox's affliction that he has either extremely poor judgment or a diabolical character flaw. He supports human embryonic stem-cell experimentation, thus contending that some humans are subhuman and expendable for others' personal gain.
******* We know there is nothing new under the sun. So Fox's character flaw is not new, just a variation of the worst of human behavior throughout history.
******* Slaveholders thought those whose lives and deaths they controlled were "property," as the U.S. Supreme Court determined in the 1857 Dred Scott decision. Hitler thought Jews were evolutionary mistakes. The Islamic government of Sudan currently has it in for black Christians.
******* DIFFERENT DAY, DIFFERENT HOLOCAUST
******* As is always the case, the powerful determine the fate of the powerless, and if the powerful don't hold the view that all humans are created equal, then the powerless end up enslaved or dead.
******* Some may think I'm going over the top to compare Fox to slave owners or Hitler or the Sudanese government. "Fox is a nice guy, and he's sick. Be nice."
******* If you think that, your sympathies are misplaced. Fox advocates killing certain people to experiment on them "for the greater good" simply because those people don't look like we do – yet. This is odd, because some day Fox won't look like most people either.
******* If Fox wanted to kill a football stadium full of toddlers to experiment on them, I doubt anyone would think he was normal, and I doubt anyone would bear with his barbaric rambling to be nice.
******* But using Fox's logic, experimentation of 2-year-olds should be acceptable. Toddlers are certainly far less developed on the human continuum and don't look at all normal by adult standards. The reason they are called "toddlers" in the first place is because their oversized heads and bellies cause them to "toddle" when they walk.
******* Scientifically speaking, a human is a human from the instant of fertilization, no matter what phase of development. "Take that single cell of the just conceived zygote, put it next to a chimpanzee cell, and 'a geneticist could easily identify the human. Its humanity is already that strikingly apparent,'" said Randy Alcorn in his newly released book, "Why Pro-Life?," quoting from "Preview of a Birth."
******* I'll worry about Fox's feelings after he stops using his considerable influence to convince the American public to support taxpayer-funded human embryonic stem-cell experimentation. Fox is not only pushing an ideology on me that advocates the destruction of human life, but he also wants to force me to pay for it. What gall.
******* I feel sorry for Fox's kids. Flashing them either forward or backward in one of Fox's "Back to the Future" movies, they are in lose-lose situations.
******* The future Fox wants to create for his three daughters looks bleak. No longer will only hens lay eggs for human consumption if Fox has his way. His daughters will be exploited for their eggs, too, because the only source of these pre-embryos is women. It is foolish to think technology will be sated by the availability of today's orphaned embryos, as is now the spin.
******* And in an altered past, Fox would have allowed the dissection of his days-old embryonic children so he could surgically ingest them in an effort to cure his own ailments - high tech cannibalism.
******* It's funny that Fox calls himself a vegetarian.
******* Jill Stanek fought to stop "live-birth abortion" after witnessing one as a registered nurse at Christ Hospital in Oak Lawn, Ill. In 2002, President Bush asked Jill to attend his signing of the Born Alive Infants Protection Act. In January 2003, World Magazine named Jill one of the 30 most prominent pro-life leaders of the past 30 years.

******* item 9 EXECUTED CHINESE PRISONERS SKINNED FOR COLLAGEN TREATMENTS - By Lucy Sherriff (lucy.sherriff at theregister.co.uk)http://www.theregister.co.uk/2005/09/13/skinned_collagen Published Tuesday 13th September 2005
******* From: Robert A Jason
******* Skin from prisoners executed in China is being used to develop cosmetic
collagen treatments aimed at the European market, according to The Guardian.
The newspaper says that agents from a China-based company claim the skin,
which is taken from prisoners after they have been shot, is being used to
develop the collagen for anti-aging treatments such as wrinkle and
lip-filling injections.
******* Company reps reportedly described the practice to undercover reporters as "traditional" and nothing to "make such a big fuss about".
******* One told the undercover researchers: "A lot of the research is still carried out in the traditional manner using skin from the executed prisoner and
aborted foetus."
******* He claimed the material was bought from large bio-tech firms in China's
northern province of Heilongjiang.
******* When questioned on the record, however, the company denied that it uses skin from executed prisoners.
******* Amnesty International estimates that around 3,400 people were executed in China last year, and that some 6,000 more are on death row.
******* In the UK, collagen treatments are currently unregulated, being classed as neither medicine nor as cosmetic products. The Department of Health recently completed an inquiry into the subject, and concluded that regulation was necessary. However, it says it will wait for the European Union to draw up
the necessary laws. This decision has drawn criticism from doctors, who say laws are needed now, not in several years time.
******* Even setting ethical issues aside, using human tissue in this way does leave open a risk of infection. There are fears, for instance, that blood-borne
viruses and even vCJD could be passed on from collagen made from human
tissue.
******* The Chinese authorities maintain that any organs harvested from the bodies of executed prisoners are only taken with the consent of the prisoner and his or her family.
******* However, The Guardian reports that a former Chinese military physician told congress in the US that in 1995 he skinned the body of a convict who had
been shot, and that while he was doing so, the man's heart was still beating. Chinese authorities denounced him as a liar.
******* Human rights campaigners in the region allege that organs are routinely sold to surgeons for transplant into paying foreign patients.

******* item 10 CANADIAN VACCINES FROM ABORTED CHILDREN - Body parts must be “harvested�? from live unborn children in order to be useableby - by Terry Vanderheyden
******* Date: Mon, 10 Apr 2006
******* From: "Debra Gillespie"
******* OTTAWA, April 10, 2006 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Concerned Canadian pharmacists have published a list of vaccines in use in the country that are currently sourced from aborted fetal tissues. It turns out that all vaccines with the exception of the flu vaccine utilize aborted fetal tissues.
******* Alternatives do exist upon special request from a physician for the hepatitis B and rabies vaccines; visit http://www.cogforlife.org/canadianvaccines.htm to see a complete list of vaccines. The Children of God for Life (COG) web site also includes a list of medications that are derived from aborted fetal tissue, including the rheumatoid arthritis drug Enbrel ®.
******* A Vatican document published last year states that doctors and families “have a duty to take recourse to alternatives, putting pressure on political authorities and health systems...They should use conscientious objection and oppose by all means – in writing, through various associations, mass media, etc, - the vaccines which do not yet have morally acceptable alternatives, creating pressure so that alternative vaccines are prepared, which are not connected with the abortion of a human foetus...�?
******* Human lives are deliberately taken in order to furnish cell lines for the production of these vaccines, according to COG. The COG also state that, similar to organ transplantation, tissues must be “harvested�? in a live form in order to be of any use for the purpose of creating a vaccine. “In aborted fetal tissue research, as in any type of human tissue or organ transplant or research, it is essential that the samples collected are still living,�? they state. This type of harvest implies informed consent by the mother for her child to be used for scientific or commercial purposes.
******* At a Merck pharmaceutical manufacturer shareholders meeting, Debi Vinnedge, who is Executive Director of Children of God for Life, blasted the Board for their inherent disregard for the American public's plea for ethical vaccines. COG had acquired enough stock in the company to put forward resolutions, and had a resolution passed to force the company to make known its use of aborted fetal tissue in its vaccines.
******* “Any manufacturer that deliberately and needlessly chooses to utilize abortion-derived cell lines causes great hardship for thousands, if not millions of people worldwide by excluding a large number of them from the benefits of preventative medicine,�? she said. “Whether by intent or indifference, such action constitutes an attempt to force the acceptance of fetal exploitation.�?
******* Health Canada allows exceptions to compulsory vaccination for moral or religious grounds and reasons of conscience.

******* item 11 DARK ENTRIES UNCOVERED IN ONLINE DIARY OF SUSPECTED KILLER OF GIRL
******* from the internet
******* Sun Apr 16, 2006
******* PURCELL, Okla. (AP) - Kevin Underwood's blog talks about the weather, movies, books, life in rural Oklahoma and - especially in more recent posts - feeling isolated, depressed and even homicidal.
******* He wrote in September 2004, "my fantasies are just getting weirder and weirder. Dangerously weird. If people knew the kinds of things I think about anymore, I'd probably be locked away. No probably about it, I know I would be."
******* In February the 26-year-old described sitting at his computer for 14 hours on his day off, while weeks of garbage sat in the kitchen.
******* "Pretty much the only time I believe in God is when I blame him for something," he said. "Or, when I'm really depressed, to cry and beg him to make me better, to make whatever is wrong in my brain go away, so that I can live like a normal person."
******* Investigators believe Underwood lured his neighbour's 10-year-old daughter into his apartment last week, beat her over the head with a wooden cutting board and suffocated her with his hands and duct tape. He was arrested Friday after he led investigators to his apartment, where they found the body of Jamie Bolin in a large Rubbermaid tub sealed with duct tape in his bedroom closet.
******* People who worked with Underwood described him Sunday as a quiet, "boring" and seemingly trustworthy young man, but their characterizations seemed to echo a September 2005 blog entry in which he described himself as becoming "more and more detached from the world."
******* In a brief, tearful telephone interview with The Associated Press, Underwood's mother was in disbelief and horror over the accusations.
******* "This is something that I don't know where it came from," said Connie Underwood, who lives across town from her son. "He was always a wonderful boy.
******* "I would like to be able to tell her family how sorry we are. I just feel so terrible."
******* Kevin Underwood first raised investigators' suspicions Friday, at a police checkpoint near his apartment, where he lived alone downstairs from Jamie and her father.
******* According to a police affidavit, he confessed that he killed the girl, telling FBI agents: "Go ahead and arrest me. She is in there. I chopped her up."
******* Jamie's unclothed body was inside the tub, along with a towel used to soak up blood, officials said. Police said that, while there were deep saw marks on the girl's neck, she had not been dismembered.
******* Authorities in this small community 65 kilometres south of Oklahoma City believe Underwood killed the girl Wednesday, when she disappeared after going to a library, and allege that he had planned to act out a fantasy by eating her flesh. Underwood, who authorities said did not appear to have a criminal record, is to be formally charged with first-degree murder Monday.
******* In his blog, where he wrote under the screen name SubSpecies 23, Underwood mentions cannibalism, asking "If you were a cannibal, what would you wear to dinner?" and responding: "The skin of last night's main course."
******* He also listed the book, Meat is Murder!: New Edition: An Illustrated Guide to the Cannibal Culture, on a wish list posted in January.
******* Underwood also wrote about his depression and feeling socially inept; he said he stopped taking the anti-depressant Lexapro in September 2004.
******* Underwood's last blog entry was posted a day after Jamie disappeared. It was a link to a story about a find that paleontologists said bridged an evolutionary gap between two prehuman species.
******* "The Missing Link found at last," was all he wrote. By Saturday there were more than 350 responses to the entry, most by people enraged by the killing.
******* Underwood worked for nearly seven years at a Carl's Jr. restaurant, where shift leader Bill Berdan described him as a quiet person who kept to himself. "He did a good job," Berdan said Sunday.
******* He said Underwood, who quit about a year ago, was a "boring" man who rarely smiled.
******* "Just his tone of voice, he just sounded dull," Berdan said. "Trying to get a smile out of him took an act of Congress."
******* Berdan said he and his wife and young daughters never suspected anything unusual.
******* "He gave my wife rides home from work numerous times," Berdan said. "We never felt uncomfortable. I talked to my girls after this happened, and they said they felt comfortable around him."
******* His most recent job was as a stocker at a Griders Discount Foods grocery store in Oklahoma City, where he arrived early for his shift Friday, said a manager at the store, Jerry Castro.
******* "He was the same as always," Castro said. "He was quiet and kept to himself. He didn't interact with people. It just didn't dawn on you that this was something he'd do."

******* item 12 ETHICAL CONTROVERSY OVER VACCINES - ABORTED FETAL TISSUE BEHIND MANY VACCINES
******* from From: [email protected] via Michel Gloanec and "mary wagner"
******* Date: Fri, 12 May 2006 23:16:51 -0700
******* Ottawa family physician Dr. Rene Leiva is looking for other pro-life Canadians to join him in launching a class-action suit against the federal government. He said they have failed to provide anti-viral childhood vaccines that were not developed from aborted fetal tissue.
******* "I'm not a lawyer, but my sense is because it goes against my [Catholic] beliefs, the government should make every effort to make that alternative available to people," Leiva told Today's Family News.
******* In many cases, manufacturers of vaccines use these cell strains as a culture on which vaccines are developed. They are then sold to provincial governments for use in compulsory inoculation programs. And while not all of the viral vaccines are grown in these cells — the Hepatitis B vaccine and some polio vaccines are grown differently — the lack of ethical options is very concerning to Leiva, who belongs to Canadian Physicians for Life.
******* Children of God for Life posted a list of Canadian vaccines and possible alternatives on their website. One example is Pentacel, which is administered to infants when they are two, four, six and 18 months old. Four of its five anti-viral components — pertussis (whooping cough), diphtheria, tetanus and the hib germ, which can develop into meningitis — are all grown using ethical means. But because its fifth component, polio, was grown using tainted cells, the entire product is rendered unethical, in Leiva's opinion.
******* The United Kingdom uses an ethical alternative known as Pediacel. But while it was approved for use in Canada in 2000, it is not marketed here, making it both difficult and expensive for individuals to try to bring it into the country. Leiva believes that the only reason manufacturers do not produce Pediacel for use in Canada is because Pentacel is cheaper.
******* "That's how they increase their profits," he said. "Also, I guess they argue the safety and other technical reasons for it — which still may be valid from a utilitarian point of view. But the fact that something is 'better' doesn't make it morally acceptable."
******* Nor can Leiva imagine governments being willing to open up their contracts with the suppliers of these vaccines, "because it's a good deal for them. It's only under pressure from the public that they start changing." In fact, when Leiva asked Health Canada if it would be willing to import Pediacel, he received no reply.
******* "All the people who are for this [existing arrangement] say, 'These [tainted vaccines] were related to one or two abortions that happened in the 1960s,' " Leiva said. "If you want to be a literalist, then yes, they're correct. Nevertheless, my research has shown that it took at least 80-something abortions to come up with the technique to be able to produce this vaccine."
Leiva is not alone in his concern about the moral dilemma that these unethical vaccines create. In an attempt to provide some guidelines about the use of these vaccines, other Christian physicians have concluded that the ethics involved depend on how the vaccines have been developed and the distance between the end user and the means by which the vaccines were originally developed.
******* In a statement on the issue, the Christian Medical and Dental Association (CMDA) provides some specific recommend guidelines including its position that "using technology developed from tissue of an intentionally aborted fetus, but without continuing the cell line from that fetus, may be morally acceptable." It goes on to posit that "[c]ontinued use of a cell line developed from an intentionally aborted fetus poses moral questions and must be decided as a matter of conscience, weighing the clear moral obligation to protect the health of our families and society against the risk of complicity with evil."
******* Both Leiva and the CMDA agree that the solution to the ethical dilemma that parents face could be eliminated by developing and promoting ethical alternatives.
******* Health Canada allows people to refuse vaccinations for moral or religious grounds and as a matter of conscience. But Leiva insists that he cannot in good conscience advise parents not to have their children vaccinated. Because even if that means using a contaminated vaccine, that is still preferable to exposing them to the increased risk of catching a serious disease.
"For girls, rubella can be dangerous later on for their own babies. Polio can be quite bad. Chicken pox is thought to be a mild disease, but it can be serious. I have seen a four-month-old baby die of chicken pox," he said. "I myself have a newborn, and I have had to vaccinate her with an unethical vaccine. And it's really upsetting."

******* item 13 CATHOLIC MEDICAL ASSOCIATION WANTS VACCINES NOT USING CELLS FROM ABORTED CHILDREN
******* by Steven Ertelt, LifeNews.com Editor, via John Hof
May 16, 2006
******* Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- The Catholic Medical Association and other pro-life advocates are calling for companies to produce new vaccines that do not use cells from babies who have been aborted. The call comes after a vaccine with such cells was used in Iowa to treat a recent outbreak of the mumps.
******* Part of the vaccine used in Iowa (MMR) to treat the outbreak derived from tissue obtained from abortion, and there is no alternative available for that component in the U.S, according to CMA.
******* That the vaccine relies on killing babies before birth to cure others is causing problems for pro-life residents in Iowa.
******* "The concerns raised in Iowa show that this is a real issue for many people," explains Robert Saxer, CMA's executive vice president. "Pharmaceutical companies and the FDA have a responsibility to address these concerns and provide vaccines that can be used by all."
******* But the mumps vaccine is not the only one that relies on cells from aborted babies.
******* Vaccines that have been derived from cell lines originally prepared from tissue taken from voluntarily aborted babies include those for rubella, Hepatitis A, as well as others.
******* "The bottom line is that vaccines derived from abortions should mainly be avoided and used only when alternatives are unavailable," Saxer said. "But there is really no reason why those alternatives should be unavailable."
******* "The pharmaceutical companies that manufacture the vaccines have the ability and know-how to produce versions of these vaccines which do not depend on cell lines from aborted fetuses," he explained. "They should be pressured to develop those vaccines to meet the health needs of those who have religious and ethical objections to abortion."
******* Saxer also called on the FDA to allow for the licensing and importation of safe and effective ethical alternative vaccines such as Takahashi (rubella) and Aimmugen (Hepatitis A).
******* Richard Doerflinger, a pro-life spokesman for the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, agrees with Saxer's concerns.
******* He said the nation's Catholic bishops will work with CMA and other pro-life groups to help make alternative vaccines readily available.
"In this way we can ensure that concerned Catholics and other pro-life Americans will not confront the dilemma of having to accept a vaccine based on morally illicit sources, or risk compromising the health of themselves and others," Doerflinger said.

******* item 14 BRITISH APPEAL COURT OKs DESIGNER BABY FOR SPARE PARTS
******* From LifeSite Daily News via "D.Fernandes"
******* Date Fri, 16 May 2003
******* LONDON, May 16, 2003 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Britain's Court of Appeal has ruled that a couple can go ahead and create a designer baby from which to take spare parts in hopes of curing their four-year-old son. Shahani and Raj Hashmi's son Zain has beta-thalassaemia, which could possibly be
cured by a bone marrow transplant using "material" from babies created through IVF purely for the extraction of genetically matching bone marrow.
******* The decision is a setback for the pro-life group, Comment on Reproductive Ethics (CORE), which had previously challenged that decision at the High Court and won, forcing the Hashmis to seek
treatment abroad. But the Appeal Court's Lord Justice Schiemann said his ruling would not create a "free-for-all," but that future cases would be decided on their merits.

******* From: "Patrick Johnston"
******* Date: Sun, 24 Apr 2005
******* What if a restaurant in Zanesville was feeding you human body parts without your knowledge?
******* Unfortunately, this scenario is not too far-fetched! Several routine vaccines are manufactured from cells harvested from abortion victims � the Chicken Pox and Poliovax vaccines, and the Rubella vaccine, which is in the MMR (Measles-Mumps-Rubella) vaccine. Rubella is given routinely during pregnancy and MMR at 1 and 4 years of age. Tri-Valley Family Practice is the only place in Muskingum County where you can get the Measles and Mumps vaccine without the unethical Rubella vaccine. If you would like to get Measles and Mumps vaccines for your children, and stop contributing to the exploitation of aborted babies, call 740-754-2671 to schedule a vaccination.

******* item 17 CHINESE ARMY HARVESTING PARTS FROM FALUNGONG INMATES
******* from Yahoo News Wed Jan 31, 2007
******* OTTAWA (AFP) - China's military is reportedly harvesting organs from prison inmates, mostly Falungong practitioners, for large scale transplants including for foreign recipients, a study said.
******* Canada's former Secretary of State for the Asia Pacific region David Kilgour and human rights lawyer David Matas released a report Wednesday into such transplants after interviewing organ recipients in 30 countries.
******* They also interviewed Canadian hospital staff who subsequently cared for hundreds of patients after they underwent dubious transplant surgeries in China.
******* "The involvement of the People's Liberation Army in these transplants is widespread," Kilgour told a press conference.
******* Like many civilian hospitals in rural China, military hospitals turned to selling organs to make up for government funding cuts in the 1980s, the report states.
******* But military personnel could operate with much more secrecy, it added.
******* "Recipients often tell us that even when they receive transplants at civilian hospitals, those conducting the operation are military personnel," the report states.
******* It is the second report to be released by the pair, who in July published the results of a two-month investigation in which they implicated dozens of hospitals and jails throughout China in the transplant scandal.
******* Those allegations were vigorously denied by Chinese officials.
******* Hospitals in Canada's biggest cities, Vancouver, Calgary and Toronto meanwhile confirmed "a substantial number" of Canadians had traveled to China for suspicious organ transplants, Kilgour said.
******* "We're in the three digits, up over 100 (from Canada each year) and the trend is accelerating," Matas said.
******* To curb what they called a "disgusting form of evil," the pair publicly asked pharmaceutical firms to stop selling organ anti-rejection drugs to China.
******* They also urged countries to post travel advisories warning that organs from China may have been harvested from unwilling donors; asked states to cease offering follow-up care to patients who had shady organ transplants in China; and called on foreign doctors to cut ties with their Chinese counterparts suspected of such practices.
******* States should also enact legislation to ban their citizens from traveling to China for organ transplants from forced donors, although the study's authors admitted such prosecutions would be difficult to prove.
******* The US-based lobby group "The Coalition to Investigate the Persecution of the Falungong in China" had asked Kilgour and Matas to investigate claims by several of their members.
******* China banned the spiritual group in 1999 and has vehemently denied the allegations of organ harvesting, accusing the Falungong of spreading rumors in a bid to undermine the country's international relations and "social stability."
******* Kilgour and Matas admitted that many of the claims were second-hand, but said there was enough evidence to "paint a picture."
******* They described one man traveling to Shanghai in 2003 for a kidney transplant at the civilian No. 1 People's Hospital and his convalescence at No. 85 hospital of the People's Liberation Army.
******* Eight kidneys were tested, to find a match. Only the last "from an executed prisoner" was compatible, his military surgeon told him, according to the report.
******* Wang Xiaohua, a Falungong practitioner who now lives in Montreal, told reporters he "suffered inhumane persecution" at a Chinese labor camp where jailed Falungong practitioners, and not other prisoners, were systematically subjected to blood tests to match their organs with recipients.
******* In their previous report, Matas and Kilgour interviewed several Falungong members and the former wife of a surgeon who told her he had removed the corneas from some 2,000 anaesthetized Falungong prisoners in northeast China in the two years prior to October 2003.
******* They said they listened, with the help of certified interpreters, to more than 30 veiled calls made from Canada and the United States to Chinese officials who admitted to the surgeries.
******* Dozens more Chinese hospitals and jails were implicated in transcripts of new telephone calls, including one to an air force hospital in Chengdu City, in which an official said it would be "no problem" to get organs from young and healthy Falungong practitioners for a transplant.

******* item 18 CANADA RIGHTS TEAM DECRIES CHINA "ORGAN TOURISM" By Randall Palmer
******* date Wed Jan 31, 2007
******* OTTAWA (Reuters) - Canada and other countries should discourage or prevent their citizens from going to China to get human organs whose "donors" may have been killed so that the organs could be harvested, a team of human rights lawyers said on Wednesday.
******* Former Canadian cabinet member David Kilgour decried "organ tourism," whereby rich foreigners go and pay for a transplant which, Kilgour said, may have cost a Chinese citizen his life.
******* The Chinese embassy in Ottawa had no immediate comment.
******* Kilgour and lawyer David Matas presented a report they say leads to the inescapable conclusion that Falun Gong dissidents and other prisoners in China are killed for their organs.
******* "Once a customer arrives into China, somebody's killed for the organ, whether it's a prisoner sentenced to death or a Falun Gong practitioner, and they just have this huge supply of people in jail waiting to be killed for organ donations," Matas told reporters.
******* He said that was one reason China was seeing an explosion in dedicated organ transplant facilities. The number of liver transplant facilities, for example, multiplied to 500 last year from 22 before 1999.
******* Matas estimated that at least 100 Canadians have gone to China for transplants although many might not know about the allegations that people are killed for their organs. He suggested Canada and other countries should issue travel advisories warning that transplants are sourced almost entirely from prisoners who do not give their consent.
******* The report also called for legislation that would make it illegal for Canadians to participate in an organ transplant without getting the donor's consent.
******* Chinese Vice-Health Minister Huang Jiefu called last November for a network to register all organ donations in what would be a step toward regulating the transplant market.
******* Jiefu said that most organs came from executed prisoners rather than from traffic fatalities.
******* Matas said none of these prisoners would have given their consent, and even if they had, such consent would have been suspect. He said that the United States bans the use of organs from executed prisoners for that reason.
******* "We shouldn't be complicit in it," Matas said. "If we can impact on the demand, then we can be saving the lives of these people who are executed for their organs."

******* item 19 LIST OF CANADIAN VACCINES MADE FROM ABORTED BABIES BODY PARTS - Body parts must be �harvested� from live unborn children in order to be useable - Terry Vanderheyden
******* Date: Fri, 14 Apr 2006
******* From: "Ed"
******* OTTAWA, April 10, 2006 (LifeSiteNews.com) � Concerned Canadian pharmacists have published a list of vaccines in use in the country that are currently sourced from aborted fetal tissues. It turns out that all vaccines with the exception of the flu vaccine utilize aborted fetal tissues.
******* Alternatives do exist upon special request from a physician for the hepatitis B and rabies vaccines; visit http://www.cogforlife.org/canadianvaccines.htm to see a complete list of vaccines. The Children of God for Life (COG) web site also includes a list of medications that are derived from aborted fetal tissue, including the rheumatoid arthritis drug Enbrel �.
******* A Vatican document published last year states that doctors and families �have a duty to take recourse to alternatives, putting pressure on political authorities and health systems...They should use conscientious objection and oppose by all means � in writing, through various associations, mass media, etc, - the vaccines which do not yet have morally acceptable alternatives, creating pressure so that alternative vaccines are prepared, which are not connected with the abortion of a human foetus...�
Human lives are deliberately taken in order to furnish cell lines for the production of these vaccines, according to COG. The COG also state that, similar to organ transplantation, tissues must be �harvested� in a live form in order to be of any use for the purpose of creating a vaccine. �In aborted fetal tissue research, as in any type of human tissue or organ transplant or research, it is essential that the samples collected are still living,� they state. This type of harvest implies informed consent by the mother for her child to be used for scientific or commercial purposes.
******* At a Merck pharmaceutical manufacturer shareholders meeting, Debi Vinnedge, who is Executive Director of Children of God for Life, blasted the Board for their inherent disregard for the American public's plea for ethical vaccines. COG had acquired enough stock in the company to put forward resolutions, and had a resolution passed to force the company to make known its use of aborted fetal tissue in its vaccines.
******* �Any manufacturer that deliberately and needlessly chooses to utilize abortion-derived cell lines causes great hardship for thousands, if not millions of people worldwide by excluding a large number of them from the benefits of preventative medicine,� she said. �Whether by intent or indifference, such action constitutes an attempt to force the acceptance of fetal exploitation.�
Health Canada allows exceptions to compulsory vaccination for moral or religious grounds and reasons of conscience.
