Oh, bloody hell, seriously? The claim that abortion causes breast cancer, otherwise known as "ABC" for "abortion-breast cancer" was refuted long ago and continues to be refuted. Anyone promoting that claim loses the right to be called science-based.

"The evidence that these groups put forward in support of their claims is typically of pretty poor quality and has been carefully cherry-picked to support their ideological and religious beliefs..."

"... while other, better quality evidence, is roundly ignored because it fails to support their arguments." Precisely.
