Abortion is not about saving women’s lives!

54,559,615

Total Abortions since 1973

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Why the drop after 1960? (in deaths of women from illegal abortions) (see Women's Health partway down the page)

The reasons fewer women died from abortions were new and better antibiotics, better surgery and the establishment of intensive care units in hospitals. This was in the face of a rising population. Between 1967 and 1970 sixteen states legalized abortion. In most it was limited, only for rape, incest and severe fetal handicap (life of mother was legal in all states). There were two big exceptions — California in 1967, and New York in 1970 allowed abortion on demand. Now look at the charts carefully. When did maternal mortality rates start dropping significantly?

Abortion Statistics - Decision to Have an Abortion (U.S.)

· 25.5% of women deciding to have an abortion want to postpone childbearing

· 21.3% of women cannot afford a baby

· 14.1% of women have a relationship issue or their partner does not want a child

· 12.2% of women are too young (their parents or others object to the pregnancy)

· 10.8% of women feel a child will disrupt their education or career

· 7.9% of women want no (more) children

· 3.3% of women have an abortion due to a risk to fetal health

2.8% of women have an abortion due to a risk to maternal health

----------------------------------------------------------------------

So how many women’s lives have been saved by abortion?

Less than 3% of abortions since 1972 were reported to be “due to a risk to maternal health.” A reasonable person would recognize that not all of those cases represent a lethal risk. But let’s say they did. That means that nearly 55 million fetuses were butchered to save the lives of about 1.6 million women. Or put another way; 34 babies are killed to save each woman.

Abortion was legal in all 50 states prior to Roe v. Wade in cases of danger to the life of the woman.

No, worthless Commie sluts never feel guilt. They are guilt personified.

ABORTION IS A SACERMENT to the Femi-nazis!

everyone wants to "see zero abortions,"

[SargeK]

Jim Quinn has always called abirtion “the sacrament of the feminist ‘church’ “.

Prophetic.

A woman needs an abortion like a fish needs a bicycle.

[exDemMom]

It [abortion] is supposed to make us a bad person. But I must say, I never felt that. I used to sit and try and figure out how old the child would be, trying to make myself feel guilty. But I never could!

In other words, she has been suppressing the guilt ever since. The very fact that she tries to imagine what the kid would be like is an indication of that. Most people after having genuine medical procedures, do not keep obsessing with them afterwards. Another indication of suppressed feelings of guilt is the rabid support and promotion of abortion. It's like they are trying to convince themselves that they did not do evil by having an abortion, because so many other women have had abortions--somehow, larger numbers of co-murderers makes the murder less bad.

No woman who has successfully prevented pregnancy by using contraceptives ever goes around saying that if only she hadn't used the pill 25 years ago, she'd have a kid in college now...

Gloria Steinem is to women

Both make their living off of misery while convincing the miserable that they’re fighting for them.

“[T]he federal government has sustained a loss of $12.3 trillion in revenue due to abortion.” -Steven Ertelt

This assertion takes into account the abortion rate prior to Roe v. Wade, and generational losses due to same. Obviously an approximation, but is it any wonder the United State suffers moral and economic woe when it is so commonplace for mothers to take the lives of their children for the sake of “convenience?”

The arguments against abortion ought to be based predominantly on a moral code that values human life at all stages, not merely for the of economic advancement. The Creator is not arbitrary in bringing about and sustaining human life.
