Penelope Cardoza is absolutely wrong on her so-called scientific belief that a preborn baby’s life begins after she is born (“A woman’s body belongs to her alone,” Star-Advertiser, Letters, May 16).

Half of the babies are female, in case you care about women’s rights. How about the right to live?

There is no such thing as separation of church and state. Do a little research.

Dr. Andrew Oishi was correct when he said that scientific proof is clear that human life begins at conception (“On abortion, UH’s School of Medicine doesn’t speak for me,” Star-Advertiser, Island Voices, May 4). It is awesome that he stepped out and shared the truth about life.
