Theyre threatened by informed consent. Theyre traumatized by the limp body parts they look at every day. Theyre torn by the contradiction that they became doctors to preserve life but use their profession to end it. Here are some eye-opening confessions from current and former abortionists.
They [the women] are never allowed to look at the ultrasound because we knew that if they so much as heard the heart beat, they wouldnt want to have an abortion. Dr. Randall, former abortionist
Even now I feel a little peculiar about it, because as a physician I was trained to conserve life, and here I am destroying it. -Dr. Benjamin Kalish, abortionist
You have to become a bit schizophrenic. In one room, you encourage the patient that the slight irregularity in the fetal heart is not important, that she is going to have a fine, healthy baby. Then, in the next room you assure another woman, on whom you just did a saline abortion, that it is a good thing that the heartbeat is already irregular she has nothing to worry about, she will NOT have a live baby… All of a sudden one noticed that at the time of the saline infusion there was a lot of activity in the uterus. That’s not fluid currents. That’s obviously the fetus being distressed by swallowing the concentrated salt solution and kicking violently and that’s to all intents and purposes, the death trauma… somebody has to do it, and unfortunately we are the executioners in this instance[.] -Dr. Szenes, abortionist
Telling those women their fetuses feel pain is heaping torment upon torment. These women have real pain. They did not come to this decision easily. Creating another barrier for them to get the medical care they need is really unfair. Abortionist Dave Turok
This is why I hate overuse of forceps – things tear. There are only two kinds of doctors who have never perforated a uterus, those that lie and those who dont do abortions. Anonymous Abortionist
I got to where I couldn’t stand to look at the little bodies anymore. -Dr. Beverly McMillan, former abortionist
I think in many ways Ive been lucky to have been part of this. If I hadnt gotten involved, I would have gone through life probably being perfectly satisfied to go to the medical society parties and it would have been very, very dull. I would have been bored silly. -Dr. Jane Hodgson, late abortionist
Sorrow, quite apart from the sense of shame, is exhibited in some way by virtually every woman for whom I performed an abortion, and thats 20,000 as of 1995. The sorrow is revealed by the fact that most women cry at some point during the experience The grieving process may last from several days to several years Grief is sometimes delayed The grief may lie sublimated and dormant for years. -Dr. Susan Poppema, abortionist
If I see a case…after twenty weeks, where it frankly is a child to me, I really agonize over it because the potential is so imminently there…On the other hand, I have another position, which I think is superior in the hierarchy of questions, and that is “who owns this child?” It’s got to be the mother. -Dr. James MacMahon, abortionist
We know that its killing, but the state permits killing under certain circumstances. -Dr. Neville Sender, abortionist
WoW!
-——That is why you can never ever trust a Democrat. If a person can mold their conscience to accept and acquiesce to this wanton killing of human life, then they are quite capable of any transgression———
Could not have said it better...
What you saw in that container that day, was the government's solution to worldwide hunger. Abortion is now used, worldwide, to reduce the demands on government food programs. In their view, they only need to get past the baby boomer generation before they can declare themselves free and clear of future interlopers.
We, as christians, know better.
I’ve seen websites where abortionists talk about abortion. They acknowledge that they are murderers; they know that they aren’t helping the women whose babies they are killing, yet they continue to kill. They know perfectly well that their clients are using abortion as a primary method of birth control, and some abortionists have even expressed their anger at these women for getting pregnant and putting the abortionists in the position of committing abortions, yet they do nothing to educate these women. With their understanding of the issue of abortion, they could do so much to decrease its occurrence, but they don’t. I guess, in the long run, the lure of easy money is more compelling than their consciences.
The real War On Women.
I’m confused by your post. What EXACTLY do you want the abortioniststo do to educate patients & reduce the number of abortions?
I assume you are aware the majority of women seeking abortions were contracepting at the time they got pregnant? Contraception is a lie, so don’t even try to run that jive by me.
When a supposed ‘’civilized’’ society can sanction killing it’s children in the womb then that society is on the fast track to it’s own extermination.
Jesus Christ is their only Answer. We have a few women who have had abortions and they come to the mill to try to convince others to avoid the heartache and suffering they have endured. Some of these ladies have suffered for nearly 40 years with the "choice" they made. It truly is a decision that lasts a lifetime. 81% of post-abortive women have mental problems. Many attempt suicide when they realize they cannot drown the memory of what they have done. Only through Jesus can they be forgiven and also learn to forgive themselves.
Out of sight. Out of mind.
I’m either a late 2nd or early 3rd survivor.
Thank your mother. They give you a thousand reasons to let nature run its course. When my wife would not consent to putting the baby on a morphine drip after birth (let it starve to death), a doctor took me to a private room to reason. He said she was irrational and that the baby would be a burden for the family — especially his older brother. I was irrational too. Now they are playing violent video games in the next room.
That was 35 years ago at a Catholic hospital. My mom is extremely pro-life. I was lucky. No major problems. I’m short for my family of 6’5 giants, but that was it.
They can stop lying to their clients (NOT patients), for one thing. Instead of telling them that the baby is a mass of formless tissue (or whatever the exact lie they say), they can simply tell the truth. Why do you think there are efforts to force abortionists to show their clients the pre-abortion ultrasounds? Simply educating women would do a LOT to help to decrease the number of abortions. The number of women using abortion as their primary method of birth control would probably drop drastically.
I assume you are aware the majority of women seeking abortions were contracepting at the time they got pregnant? Contraception is a lie, so dont even try to run that jive by me.
I understand very well why the abortion industry spreads the untruth that contraceptives don't work--anything they can do to discourage the use of contraceptives increases their profits. I have never understood why people who call themselves pro-life want to spread the same untruth.
I once saw where The Alan Guttmacher institute--which has a strong profit motive in promoting abortion--estimated that ~75% of those who abort were not using contraceptives. And that number is probably low, because it is counterproductive when promoting abortion to admit that the majority of pregnancies that end in abortion result from irresponsible behavior. That's because people are a lot more tolerant of someone having an abortion if they think she did everything possible to avoid pregnancy. Out of the many abortions I personally know of or have read about, I have *never* seen one that was committed because contraceptives failed.
You only abort unwanted children - if you’re using contraception anytime it fails, all children are unwanted. Ergo - contraception changes the mentality.

Most abortion clients were not using contraceptives at the time they got pregnant. Thus, even though they may not have wanted the child, it was still a planned pregnancy.
A little bit of education about pregnancy would go a long ways towards combatting the attitude that it's okay to be irresponsible because everything can be "taken care of" via abortion.
I don’t know where you got your stat on the 75%, but from Guttmacher’s own website, 54% of women obtaining abortion services were contraception when they got pregnant. As far as the abortion industry discouraging contraceptive use, I have never, ever witnessed that. All abortion clinics in my local phone book offer free conforms, prescriptions for birth control pills, and the morning after pill.
Your thoughts on this are way off. How do you explain widespread use of BCPs and IUDs yet we still abort over 1 million children in this country every year?? Contraception is not fail-safe and it is a lie. It’s the real war on women. Wake up.
