TEApublican: Women On Birth Control Have “Little Tiny Fetuses” “Embedded” in Their Wombs!


Pastor claims that women who use the pill have "tiny fetuses embedded in their wombs" and serve as "graveyards for lots of little babies."

TEApublican radio host Pastor Kevin Swanson is certainly no scientist. On his radio show he claimed that upon examination by “certain doctors and certain scientists” that “there are these little tiny fetuses, these little babies, that are embedded into the womb…Those wombs of women who have been on the birth control pill effectively have become graveyards for lots and lots of little babies.”

Good Lord! When the hell are the Republican MEN going to stop with all of this delusional BS.

The 'War on Women' is real.

and civil rights and those are given to the fetus, instead.

Republicans are weirdos, willing to declare entities like corporations and fertilized ova human beings, but denying that living, breathing, thinking women are human, at all.

It is what you get when a Political (former Republican Party) Party embraces the lowest depraved theo lory out of ambition to gain power. Imagine the children who are taught this gibberish in church schools and home schooling. It will not go away.

but how is anyone within hearing distance of such idiotic statements able to keep from laughing right in his face? He and his followers must be drinking or sniffing a very insidious blend of tea.

Where do they get this? Well, we all know where shit comes from, don't we?

PZ Myers blogged about this (BTW, he's a biology professor and, unlike the douche in the OP, PZ actually understands and teaches histology):

7. Guys, I think we are all jumping to conclusions here.

We should all be open minded on such an un-studied, ambiguous part of the human biological function.

Give him a chance to show us the science. I mean, if we just now discovered a women's body automatically prevents conception during "legitimate" rape, who knows what else religious whackos are holding out on us?

I keep hearing that any minute they are going to prove that it is possible that Joseph didn't fall for the worst lie of all time. What are the odds it was the neighbor? Blasphemy!




Just because we are "allies" and sell arms to the Saudis doesn't mean we should treat women like they do. What year is this again?

I agree OP, the "War on Women" is real. But don't kid yourself, there are plenty of people who voted (D) in the last election that are religious and do not believe in birth control or abortion. Luckily most of the room temperature IQ blow-hards who publically state this garbage are of the (R) nature.

However, it is religion that is the problem.......

10. I openly mock that man...

I mock his beliefs.
I mock his cherished "truths".
I mock his positions.
I mock his lack of knowledge so proudly displayed for all to see.
I mock him with malice of thought and ill intent.
I mock him to make others see this must end.

As soon as anyone states "some 'insert-occupation-here' say", they should be REQUIRED to name sources and give names of actual people so that we may begin painting those mysterious suppliers of these insane ideas with the same mocking brush.

I have had it with playing nice and suffering fools gladly.
This is insane and that man should have to PROVE that he is mentally fit to be a pastor and a father.

13. He apparently doesn't understand how female reproduction and birth control work

They are trying to push the myth that regular birth control pills are abortifacients. The problem is that the people who listen to him don't know either and/or actually believe what he's saying. Scarier yet is that there are probably some women whom know so little about their bodies that they believe it too.
