“The British Hansard Written Answers of July 1, 1987 discloses that of 2.6 million abortions carried out in England and Wales between 1968 and 1986, 123 (or .005 percent) were performed to save the life of the mother.”
Many doctors, including abortionists, have said that abortion is never needed to save the life of a woman.

Jim Sedlak, Executive Director of American Life League’s STOPP International, pointed out that on Planned Parenthood’s website, it urged people to donate to Hurricane Katrina relief in 2005.
Upon closer inspection of the fine print on the webpage, the pro-choice organization explained that all money raised will be “used to support its own clinics and offices, not to support any of the rescue efforts or critical services needed by storm victims in New Orleans and along the Gulf Coast.”

Share on FacebookThe Topeka Capital-Journal writes of a new law requiring abortion clinics to keep the DNA of child rape victim’s abortions in order to have evidence to convict sexual predators. Planned Parenthood opposes the law, even though it has already provided leads on three rapists.
“An enhanced effort to prosecute child rapists has netted three leads during the past month for the Kansas Bureau of Investigation.
But Kansas’ abortion industry — responsible for providing the help — continues its critique of the initiative.
An official from the office of Attorney General Phill Kline told state lawmakers Tuesday that abortion doctors have sent tissue samples from three aborted fetuses to the KBI since July 11. That is when a law went into effect requiring the collection of those samples from girls younger than 14 who seek abortions.
Peter Brownlie, chief executive officer of Planned Parenthood of Kansas and Mid-Missouri says:

Share on FacebookAccording to the Guttmacher Institute, the number of abortions in America is dropping as more women choose life.
“Between 2010 and the most recent data available from 2013 and 2014, abortions have dropped another twelve percent nationally. Interestingly, some of the biggest declines occurred in states with few restrictions, such as Hawaii with a 30 percent decrease, New Mexico with a 24 percent decrease, and Nevada with a 22 percent decrease … Texas’ decline exactly matched the national average of 12 percent…This is consistent with the longer-term trends in Texas with a 42.3 percent reduction in the abortion rate since 1980 in comparison with Oregon and New Mexico, both states with few abortion restrictions, experiencing a 50.2 percent and 51.9 percent abortion rate decline respectively during the same period…
These trends are consistent with the fact that a smaller percentage of women facing unintended pregnancies have obtained an abortion. This number fell from 54 percent nationally in 1994 to 40 percent in 2008.”

Pro-life author George Grant reveals:
“Recently the Centers for Disease Control conducted a study of maternal deaths and discovered that abortion is now the 6th most common cause. The results of the study, released to the Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, admitted that those abortion related deaths may be underreported by as much as 50%.”

Share on FacebookThe Irish Pregnancy Counseling Center in Belfast refers women to England for abortions. (Abortion was then illegal in Northern Ireland under most circumstances.) These are the reasons Irish women have abortions, broken down by percentages.The statistics were based on interviews with 500 women.
The quality of life for self and family was threatened: 22%
There was parental disapproval: 18%
Woman is too young to care for a child: 18%
Woman is too old to care for a child: 3%
The circumstances were strongly unfavorable: 13%
There was no relationship with putative father: 11%
Others: 7%
8% of the women had had at least one abortion before.
Cited in Mary Kenny Abortion: The Whole Story (London: Quartet Books, 1986) 54
Most of these reasons Irish women have abortions are due to social factors- abortions out of convenience. the woman just does not want the baby. Only a small fraction of abortions were done for reasons of rape, incest, or a health problem in the mother or child.
This preborn baby is 9 – 10 weeks old. This is within the time that most abortions are currently done.
Statistically few abortions take place before the seventh week. Are the reasons Irish women have abortions good ones, considering that most abortions dismember a growing preborn child?
