Ben Carson: It was OK for me to do research on aborted fetuses

Today I was accused by the press as having done research on fetal tissue. It simply is not true. The study they distributed by an anonymous source was done in 1992. The study was about tumors. I won’t bore you with the science. There were four doctors' names on the study. One was mine. I spent my life studying brain tumors and removing them. My only involvement in this study was supplying tumors that I had removed from my patients. Those tissue samples were compared to other tissue samples under a microscope. Pathologists do this work to gain clues about tumors.
I, nor any of the doctors involved with this study, had anything to do with abortion or what Planned Parenthood has been doing. Research hospitals across the country have microscope slides of all kinds of tissue to compare and contrast. The fetal tissue that was viewed in this study by others was not collected for this study.
I am sickened by the attack that I, after having spent my entire life caring for children, had something to do with aborting a child and harvesting organs. My medical specialty is the human brain and even I am amazed at what it is capable of doing. Please know these attacks are pathetic attempts to blunt our progress.


That's his real response.  Not the one posted by the op.  


And I know why they attacked.  They attacked because Carson has been telling the truth about Margaret Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood, and the fact that she was a racist who started Planned Parenthood in order to annihilate people she thought were inferior, especially African Americans.  

He can certainly talk out of both sides of his mouth like a life-long politician.

Here is the full text of the study...

Unlike Ben, I will bore you with the science.

The study involves the histogenesis of colloid cysts.  Colloid cysts are brain tumors.  Histogenesis involves the differentiation of cells.  According to the paper, there are two competing hypotheses; one proposes colloid cysts develop from parts of the fetal brain, the second proposes colloid cysts develop from something other than the fetal brain.  Tracking so far?

You cannot determine if colloid cysts develop from fetal brain tissue unless you study the fetal brain tissue you think colloid cysts develop from.  There is no way you can be involved in a research study involving the histogenesis of colloid cysts from fetal brain tissue without knowing fetal brain tissue is going to be used during the study.

Carson is splitting the thinnest of hairs; basically stating he personally didn't do research of fetal tissue while fully knowing fetal tissue was necessary for the control.  No, he didn't do research on fetal tissue.  Yes, he did research of colloid cysts.  But, the fetal tissue was necessary to test the hypothesis of the histogenesis of colloid cysts from the embryonic paraphysis.  He is being intellectually dishonest and relying upon other's ignorance of the science involved. 

Basically, he just proved he is qualified to be a politician.
