Diane-
I looked into this, and it isn't quite true. Cells from aborted fetuses are NOT used in Vaccinnes. (Keep in mind that the church spends tons of humanitarian aid money vaccinating children in other countries.) Here is a very good explanation about what is the truth from a Catholic PRO-LIFE scientist.

As he explains, cells from aborted fetuses are NOT used in Vaccinnes. Some vaccines are cultured on human cells, and some were initially cultured on cell lines that came from 2 abortions 35 years ago. The cells from those 2 abortions were used to create a self-propogating cell line that is still in use (further abortions have not been added, is my understanding).
But, there are not aborted fetus cells in vaccines.
Love you all,

Here is my response:
Actually I did look into this further too. And I do know what derived from an abortion means. But, I did not know this from the first three articles I read. However, I still object. There are other ways to make vaccinations and other companies are doing so. Scientist made vaccinations from aborted babies as an excuse to make people think the use of cells and tissues of aborted babies is good for human health and wellness -- the baby was not wanted and so we can use it for science. As it is turning out, the use of aborted babies whether in vaccinations or stem cells either produces some frightening correlations(which are now being researched)or have been given up due to it just not working as well as using adult cells. And needless to say, I am very pro-life. I vote 100% prolife and it has served me well. I join prolife groups, I have friends who are very prolife and work tirelessly to help young girls chose adoption.
Right now, I do not know what I want to do as far as vaccinations go. I believe in vaccinating. A lot of babies died of these diseases before vaccinations. I think they are good things. But, I think that there are scientists who have used a source to derive the vaccinations for evil political intentions.
For others interested here are a number of websites that discuss this.

Oh, and I have one more thing to add. We can be sure that the autism correlation research will be countered the other way and those researchers will be better funded.

Well, I don't really want to get into this... I talked to both my mom (nurse) and sister (social worker) about it... and they both said that they had had to study this... they said that the aborted fetus were not unwanted babies but babies that would not have lived full term. That made me feel a lot better about it.
Yikes, that is actually really scary. That could mean there was something wrong with the babies. I think I would have preferred ones they knew were perfectly healthy, not using cells from fetuses that weren't developed correctly.
