Abortion "Did You
Know?"
There have been over 41
MILLION (42,000,000) abortions in the United States alone
since the 1973 Roe v. Wade Supreme Court
ruling.
Due to the radical scope of Roe v. Wade and Doe v.
Bolton, a right to abortion was effectively established
for the entire term of pregnancy for virtually any
reason, whether for sake of personal finances, social
convenience, or individual lifestyle.... Therefore, no
significant legal barriers of any kind whatsoever exist
in the United States for a woman to obtain an abortion
for any reason during any stage of her pregnancy.
For every two babies born
another baby dies in an abortion.
* That's 1.4 Million babies each year;
* That's over 4,000 babies every day;
* That's 1 baby every 20 seconds;
* That's over 41 MILLION babies since 1973;
And that's just here in America...
* At 22 days after
conception, a baby's heart is already beating.
* At 6 weeks, brain waves can be measured. At 8 weeks,
the stomach, liver, and kidneys are functioning, and
fingerprints have formed. At 9 weeks, the unborn child
can feel pain.
* 700,000 abortions are performed each year in America
after 9 weeks into the pregnancy.
* The overwhelming
majority of all abortions, (95%), are done as a means of
birth control. Only 1% are performed because of rape or
incest; 1% because of fetal abnormalities; 3% due to the
mother's health problems,
which are by no means good reasons for abortion either.
*We think the baby
should choose whether to live
or die. Until science creates a way to
talk to
a fetus, let's wait until the baby can reason
(about three?), and then ask him if he wants to die.
