Emmanuel College's Deal With the Devil

From Lifesite News comes word about pharmaceutical giant Merck's involvement with Planned Parenthood. The profits they make by pushing the dangerous HPV vaccine on young girls, often by force of law, go directly to their support of Planned Parenthood, America's abortion provider. So what does this have to do with Catholic Colleges? Well, on the Emmanuel College (of Boston) website you find a section describing their corporate partnerships and right in the middle of it is Merck. Is Emmanuel not aware of Merck's dealings with Planned Parenthood? I doubt it but we'll await their response to our inquiry.

From Emmanuel College website:

"Taking into consideration Emmanuel's unique relationship with Merck Laboratories-Boston, Dr. Marley already sees great potential for future growth and partnered enterprises between the College and local businesses.

"The idea of innovation in teaching and connection to industry is a natural," she said. "Having Merck, which represents a significant growth industry in this region, on this campus is a wonderful opportunity, but I would also see the same opportunity for us in other avenues of the Longwood Medical area, especially considering our strong tradition with nursing and teaching. I see those as wonderful bridges as well." Dean of Graduate and Professional Programs (GPP) at Emmanuel, Dr. Judith Cox Marley

  • I'm sure they believe this will blow over and they'll continue to fly under the radar but the fact is Emmanuel College should lose its Catholic standing unless they divest from Merck and others who support immoral causes like Planned Parenthood.

  • What do you expect? In the President's message, not one word about Christ or His Church. Same with the description of their so-called Center for Spirituality. Clearly this is a college ashamed of Jesus Christ and the Catholic Church. So they've thrown in with His rival, the seducer and liar.
