From The American Medical Association Of 1871

The 1871 statement of the American Medical Association (AMA) on abortionists defined them as

“Men who cling to a noble profession only to dishonor it. … false brethren … educated assassins, these modern Herods … These men who, with corrupt hearts and blood-stained hands, destroy what they cannot reinstate, corrupt souls, and destroy the fairest fabric that God has ever created … under the cloak of that medical profession … monsters of iniquity.”

Quoted in William Brennan, Ph.D. “The A.M.A. on Abortion: Anatomy of Contrasting Policy Statements.” The National Pro-Life Journal, Fall 1980. Pro-Life Publications, Inc, pages 16 and 17.

Now, of course, the American Medical Association supports abortion.

Mademoiselle Magazine Describes the Aftermath of Abortion

Mademoiselle, which is not known to be a pro-life magazine, describes a woman’s reaction to her abortion. This particular woman feels that the abortion was the best thing she could have done, but she still suffers emotionally.

“At first, physical sensations overpowered her emotions; soon, however, her emotions came up. Even today, nearly two years later, she says she still thinks about what happened. A lot. She knows she did the right thing. But now, as she did that day riding home with her lover, she feels an ache that is not physical but emotional, as if there were some part of the process left undone.”

A Saltwater Creature?

One doctor says the following:

“I prefer to look at the problem [of abortion] through the eyes of Darwin and evolution. Why not permit abortion in the first trimester, when the embryo is still a salt water creature …?”

George Crile, Jr., M.D., retired head of surgery at the Cleveland Clinic. “When Does Human Life Begin?” Guest editorial in the Medical Tribune, March 6, 1985

9week_side — an unborn baby at nine weeks, well within the first trimester.

Is this a saltwater creature? It’s hard to believe that a doctor could be so poorly informed about fetal development. Perhaps he knows the facts and is just using propaganda to support abortion.

Here is a picture of what this unborn baby looks like after a nine week abortion:

Doctor Suggests Abortion For Those Predisposed to Cancer

Dr. Cecil B. Jacobson, Chief of the Reproductive Genetics Unit at George Washington University Hospital at the time of this quote, said the following about the abortion of handicapped children:

“I can’t imagine any reasonably responsible person arguing against the abortion of mongols [derogatory term for down syndrome children]… If we could tell what fetuses are going to be affected with cancer in their 40s and 50s, I would be for aborting them now.”

Anti-Prostitution Activist Speaks Out

A feminist who opposes prostitution speaks out on abortion:

“Women are still big business for men. Abortion now provides a new multimillion-dollar business in another kind of feminine prostitution. In the first form of prostitution women are paid by men. But when women prostitute themselves to what is called the “baby scrambler,” the suction machine for abortion, they give the money to men more often than not … If women were not so intellectually passive, they would be able to see through this so-called ‘liberation.'”

Anti-prostitution activist Mary Rosera Joyce. “The Sexual Revolution Has Yet to Begin.” In Thomas J. Hilgers and Dennis J. Horan (editors), Abortion and Social Justice. Thaxton, Virginia: Sun Life Publishers, 1980. Pages 224 and 225.

Fetal Remains Thrown Out as Medical Waste

An abortionist describes what happens to the remains of unborn babies who are aborted:

“For the most part it [fetal remains] is thrown out like in many doctors’ offices. If you had a wart removed or whatever, you could make that analogy.”

Pam Crosby, Clinical Coordinator at Prince George’s Reproductive Health Services, on the clinic dumping second-trimester babies in their trash. Quoted in Debra Braun. “Bodies of Aborted Babies Thrown in Trash at Maryland Clinic.” National Right to Life News, December 8, 1983, page 5.

10weeks alive — 10 weeks. After this baby is torn apart in an abortion, his broken body is thrown out as medical waste

Pulling Apart a Chicken

6month_curled_up — six-month-old unborn baby

A British abortion doctor described a method of late-term abortion this way:

“It’s difficult to pull apart a chicken when it is newly killed. You have to cook it first, and then it comes apart very easily. It’s the same here.”

British abortionist describing a new late-term abortion procedure. Quoted in HLI Reports, June 1986, and in “Just Another Piece of Meat?”ALL About Issues, August-September 1986, pages 51 and 52.

A Zygote Is the Start of Life, Says Doctor

Adoption is Inhumane, Says Planned Parenthood

A publication put out by Planned Parenthood in Chicago said the following:

“But aren’t there alternatives to abortion? Yes, there are. A pregnant women can carry the baby to term and she can then keep it or relinquish the baby for adoption. Relinquishment is often not a very humane procedure.”

“Let’s Tell the Truth About Abortion.” Booklet distributed by Rocky Mountain Planned Parenthood. Fight Back Press, 1985.

Is this more humane than giving the baby to a loving couple?

Daphne de Jong Speaks Out About Abortion

Feminist Daphne de Jong on abortion:

“If women must submit to abortion to preserve their lifestyle or career, their economic or social status, they are pandering to a system devised and run by men for male convenience. Of all the things which are done to women to fit them into a society dominated by men, abortion is the most violent invasion of their physical and psychic integrity. It is a deeper and more destructive assault than rape …”

Daphne de Jong. “The Feminist Sell-Out.” New Zealand Listener, January 14, 1978, page 18.
