Yes, sometimes I do, Kelly. But this comment “We have been very deceived, and need to stop ignoring God’s call for us to return to His way. Only then will we be healthy and happy” was incredibly plain.

Jennifer,

You need to learn to *read* what is being suggested instead of acting in defense.

Misty comment implies that God created a “plan” for feeding babies. He did. He did not create bottles or formula, though those things can be useful at times.

Generally speaking, women who breast feed (a.k.a. “God’s plan”) get breast cancer less often. That’s what science is telling us.

And yes, there is a slippery slope of women who rush to the work force who never even consider breast feeding (a.k.a. don’t give “God’s plan” a second thought).

So by deductive reasoning, abandoning “the plan” CAN lead to increased risk of cancer.

It’s not meant as a tsk tsk to women, but rather a candid observation.

So if women don’t have babies and nurse, they’re not following God’s plan and may get cancer? Don’t think so.

Well, not all women are meant to have babies.

Kelly,
Someone(I think it was Kathy@Teaching Good Things but could have been Jasmine Bauchum) shared your post and the link was in the comments. When I tried to find it, all I could find through my history was an FB page that had been “reported as abuse or offensive”.

Belinda,

No, I didn’t see it. Was it an article from my blog on the stats? I don’t remember doing one like that

Kelly,
Yesterday, I read an article that had been linked through your post that had been shared on FB. It had to do with the 2008 statistics on how much the Komen foundation had contributed to Planned Parenthood. Did you see that?
I can’t find it again. I looked but I think it was deleted or reported as offensive.

I was totally disgusted with the idea of posting a bra color for all others to read. I did not find it to raise awareness of breast cancer. It only raised my eyebrows. What happened to prudent women? The way I see it, my bra color should only be known by myself and my husband. I just couldn’t believe it when I saw that our preacher’s wife participated. Thank you for speaking truth, Kelly!
