I am personally responsible for 75,000 abortions.

What a burden to bear. I hope he found peace.

In fact, of course,
abortion is now being used as a primary method of birth control in the
U.S. and the annual number of abortions has increased by 1500% since
legalisation.

Knowing that if a true poll were taken, we would be soundly defeated, we simply fabricated the results of fictional polls. We announced to the media that we had taken polls and that 60% of Americans were in favour of permissive abortion. This is the tactic of the serf-fulfilling lie. Few people care to be in the minority. We aroused enough sympathy to sell our program of permissive abortion by fabricating the number of illegal abortions done annually in the U.S. The actual figure was approaching 100,000 but the figure we gave to the media repeatedly was 1,000,000. Repeating the big lie often enough convinces the public. The number of women dying from illegal abortions was around 200-250 annually. The figure we constantly fed to the media was 10,000.

My Lord, they lied their heads off, and there was no factual correction or counter-attack.

This book was published 2 years ago, and it appears the article was writen much before that -

Does news/activism now allow advertising ?

"Doctor" Nathanson should do the honorable thing, and eat a bullet.

Interesting. I know a nurse who became pro-life after seeing ultrasound scans of fetuses when assigned to the obstetrics unit of his hospital. He never had anything to do with abortions, but he had previously been "pro-choice".

To those who object to the use of the term "fetus", let me say that whatever monkeying around with terminology the pro-aborts may do, it is a legitimate term. It doesn't mean an undifferentiated tissue mass.

"Fetus" is Latin for "little one" and in modern medical terminology is the name for a particular phase of development. A human fetus is a human. It's not a man or woman. It's not a child. It's not a baby. It's still a human.

" Repeating the big lie often enough convinces the public."

That is the way the liberals approach everything they want to shove at us.

The Hand of God book

In this book, Nathanson mentions a pro-life event in 1989 south of L.A. that was a key catalyst in moving him to the Christian faith (he became pro-life before he became a Christian). That event was a rescue at a abortion clinic. As pro-life folks were singing & praying while sitting down all around a Cyprus, CA, Nathanson came around the back door and sat down for a while next to me--temporarily risking arrest w/the rest of us.

He had to catch a flight...and the police were taking their time before deciding to arrest us--thus keeping the clinic shut down for the entire day. The police detained us (hundreds) at a local tennis court.

We eventually wound up paying a fine. It was good to read in Nathanson's book that the event impacted his faith walk!

On that day, God was not only saving babies physically, but Dr. Nathanson spiritually

I got to hear Dr. Nathanson speak at a pro-life dinner in the 80's. You are indeed right, with God all things are possible.

When I was pregnant with my first child, I asked my OB (I suspected he was was pro-abortion) if he'd heard of Dr. Nathanson. He wouldn't look me in the eye and gave me a brief, "yes".

Carol Everett is an ex-owner and manager of 4 abortion clinics with an equally powerful testimony. Today she speaks on behalf of the unborn. Her audiotapes (somewhat graphic) made me cry.

[Dr. Nathanson has since converted to Catholicism, being baptised in 1996.]

And his sponsor was the Baptist Chuck Colson.
