Abortions in the News

Walter Hoye (pro-life pastor from California) posted these statistics on Facebook last month, and it caught plenty of attention.   In 2008, according to the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, there were more induced abortions than all other causes of death combined.
Heart Disease....21,844

Cancer.......13,116

Influenza/Pneumonia....2,578

Diabetes......1,708

Stroke....1,669

All Deaths (excl. abortion)....55,391

Induced Abortions....82,475

Sad statistics indeed.   Women have other options.   This trend needs to stop.  The funding of Planned Parenthood by our federal government to the tune of $1.3 million per year also needs to stop.
