Share on FacebookFrom a woman who had an abortion because she felt she was pregnant with too many children:
“The doctor explained that he would inject special salty water and that the needle would go into my tummy and… puncture the babies’ hearts – they were going to do it like that. And the babies stay inside you – they don’t come out or go rotten, they just stay there as tissue… And the worst part of it all is that they jumped. I felt it. I felt them moving. I felt them fighting.”
Guardian, November 28, 1989

“Whether or not we are religious, deciding whether to keep or terminate a pregnancy is a process steeped in spiritual values: responsibility, stewardship, love, honesty, compassion, freedom, balance, discernment. But how often do we hear words like these coming from pro-choice advocates?”

“There has been no major impact on the number of women dying from abortion in the United States since liberalized abortion was introduced… Legal abortion is now the leading cause of abortion -related maternal deaths in the United States.”

“Fetuses, especially those as old as five or six months, elicit our sympathy…because they look disconcertingly like people; their physical features are recognizably human. But this sympathy is misplaced…. While a fetus of five or six months may, perhaps, possess some flickering of sensation, or some capacity to feel pain, this is equally true and probably even more true of creatures like fish or insects….a proper respect for the right to life requires that it not be respected where it does not exist.”
Mary Ann Warren, Commentary on “Can the Fetus be an Organ Farm?” Hastings Center Report October 1978, p 23-24
is this not life?
Is the child above really equivalent to an insect or fish?
Does this look like an insect?

“It takes about $5,000-$6,000 per year to pay the costs of institutionalized care for retarded individuals. The 50,000 persons now receiving institutional care for Down’s syndrome alone represent an expense of some $250-$300 million per year. “

“prenatal diagnosis in combination with selective abortion.”

“We are simply using something which is destined for the incinerator to benefit mankind.”

From an article on how to do first trimester abortions:
“After the procedure, the aspirate should be rinsed through a sieve with cold water and suspended in a wide glass dish to facilitate inspection. The gestational sac should be identified, and after 9 weeks fetal parts may also be seen (limbs, calvarium, and spine). A backlight underneath the dish helps. After 10 weeks gestation, all fetal parts should be identified.”
