Oooh! Even better. Have you a cite, though? Pepto Bismol in particular is so ancient I’m doubting they’d even _heard_ of fetal cell lines – we’re talking turn of the 20th century here. ---

Here’s the full list: [![](https://www.kark.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/85/2021/09/vlcsnap-2021-09-13-19h26m17s054.png?resize=876,492) ](https://www.kark.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/85/2021/09/vlcsnap-2021-09-13-19h26m17s054.png?resize=876,492) Dunno where they got it from, though. ---

I believe that many medications are tested at various times - even fairly recently, even if they’ve been on the market for a while. I don’t have a cite for that though. And as Skywatcher says above, not sure where Conway Regional got their list. ---

Thank you for that. Of course to some people, Catholics aren’t real Christians. ---

If the cites are accurate as to what was tested on fetal cells, it doesn’t matter what people think of Catholics. I think patheos itself is supposed to be interfaith. ---
