Abortion

.
If you don't believe that human life begins at conception, then the abortion debate really has no meaning.

If you do believe that human life begins at conception, but still think a woman have a right to choose the death of the child, I don't know how to respond to that belief.

If you took the time to view the 'world clock' on the May 6th post, you would see statistics for worldwide deaths. As of this morning, (May 22) YTD worldwide deaths were 23,553,000. This includes deaths from disease and injury. Deaths from abortion are not included in the death total but would add an additional 16,063,000 deaths.

On an annual basis in the US, about 1,200,000 abortions are performed. Worldwide that number jumps to 50,000,000 (fifty million) abortions per year.

My point is, in 4 years 200,000,000 (two hundred million) abortions are performed worldwide or as many deaths as 100 years of war in the bloody 20th Century.

President Obama has said he wants to reduce the number of abortions, so he must not think that they are morally neutral.

A question I have to ask is how many times has the cure for aids or cancer, the solution to the energy crisis or a world peacemaker been destroyed in the mother's womb?
