And this doesn't include chemical abortions from the pill, Plan B etc......
54,559,615 Abortions Since Roe vs. Wade Decision in 1973
A new estimate published by the National Right to Life Committee indicates there have been an estimated 54,559,615 abortions since the Supreme Court handed down its 1973 Roe vs. Wade decision allowing virtually unlimited abortions.
Although the March for Life took place today, yesterday was the 39th anniversary of the Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton decisions — companion cases from Texas and Georgia that struck down pro-life laws protecting unborn children across the country.
In a new document, “Abortion Statistics: United States Data and Trends,” NRLC education director Dr. Randall K. O’Bannon estimates that there have been 54,559,615 abortions since 1973 based on data from both the Centers for Disease Control and the pro-abortion Guttmacher Institute, a former Planned Parenthood research arm. Guttmacher receives numbers directly from abortion centers themselves and is the prime source for more current figures because the Centers for Disease Control has never tabulated accurate numbers of abortions. The CDC relies on figures from state health departments, some of which rely on voluntary reporting — and it hasn’t had data from some states such as California and New Hampshire for more than a decade. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/01/23/54559615-abortions-since-roe-vs-wade-decision-in-1973/

If 54 million baptized babies where murdered, there would be 54 million additional Saints in Heaven. The magnitude of the crime of abortion is only realized in understanding that those 54 million plus children will never see God. Those children were robbed of the beatific vision. I can't think of anything sadder.
ReplyDeleteAnd that is exactly why I'm so disappointed in groups like Pro-Life Wisconsin and the Right to Life groups. They are ALL afraid to say that - even the groups that pretend to be Catholic! That is the reason why abortion is so evil!
