Abortion Leading Global Cause of Death in 2020 with 42.7 Million Killed

Abortion was once again the number-one cause of death globally in 2020, with a record 42.7 million unborn babies killed in the womb, according to data provided by Worldometer.

As of December 31, 2020, there were 42.7 million abortions performed in the course of the year, Worldometer revealed, while 8.2 million people died from cancer, 5 million from smoking, and 1.7 million of HIV/AIDS.

By comparison, worldwide deaths from the coronavirus in 2020 totaled 1.8 million, according to Johns Hopkins University.

Worldometer — voted one of the best free reference websites by the American Library Association (ALA) — keeps a running tally through the year of major world statistics, including population, births, deaths, automobiles produced, books published, and CO2 emissions.

It also registers the total number of abortions performed worldwide, based on the latest statistics on abortions published by the World Health Organization (WHO).

Globally, there were more deaths from abortion in 2020 than all deaths from cancer, malaria, HIV/AIDS, smoking, alcohol, and traffic accidents combined, according to Worldometer statistics.

The shocking number of deaths from abortion, in fact, has led certain observers to call abortion “the social justice cause of our time,” since the sheer magnitude of the problem completely overshadows other human rights issues.

The year 2020 also saw abortion legalized in Argentina, one of the last bastions in the world to recognize and protect the right to life of unborn children.

Horrendous, yet if you do not wear a mask the Left will accuse you of being a murderer, but if an infant is in the wrong location or needing assistance then they can be killed.

Abortion is murder!

Murder is, in most civilizations, against the law!

Abortion should be against the law!

While the numbers are all over the place from 55 to 80 million for the total killed during WWII one year of abortions at 42 million is pretty sobering.

The almost 2 million Cov$d deaths worldwide look like small potatoes now

And to think that these helpless infants were in “quarantine,” engaging in “shelter-in-place” and yet in far far far more danger of death via a human “virus” entering into their safe abode and terminating their young lives than even the every aged is from Covid-19. The latter is not much of a threat to the lives of the young, but Dr. abortion is.

Which means that SJW liberals who go on about their causes in the name of saving lives have no real ground to stand upon since they are drowned out by the silent screams of the vast multitudes whose terminated lives they support and enable.

And the logic, "a women has the right over her own body" no more justifies treating the occupant therein (usually due to her own choices) as if he has none, and exterminating the infant (usually for convenience sake) than a women throwing an infant out of her car (usually that got in their due to her choice) because she does not want it there, and the responsibility for her actios that resulted in the child's presence.

We have gone from the day when a women basically considered herself dead if she did not bear children, to taking pills for decades to prevent that, and wanting children dead that are a result of nature doing what God designed it to do!

But at least these innocents go to be with the Lord i believe, unlike the impenitent that kill them.

I was watching some of "Cries of the Unborn" about a jury deciding whether kidnapping pregnant women that were going to abort their babies, and bringing them to term, was wrong. It is a far-fetched plot, and the actors/actresses are pretty good, and there is compelling argumentation but it they could do a better job to get their point across. Yes, the kidnappers were guilt of kidnapping just as hiding Jews was breaking the law, but the intent of the law was fulfilled. See list of other films here
