A BUNCH OF STUFF ABOUT ME:

I am Pro-life; I do not believe in abortion, period. I also do not believe in war, murder (that can be classified as abortion), or anything that would kill another human being. I believe that a fetus is a human from the moment of conception.*

*I am a vegitarian; I will not eat animals, period.*

*I am a feminist; I believe that no man is better than a woman because of his gender.*

*I am a Christian; I believe in Heaven and I believe Jesus died on the cross for my sins.*

Don't agree with anything I just said?

Tough.

STATISTICS:

In 2000, more children died from abortion than Americans died in the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, World Wars I and II, the Korean, Vietnam and Gulf Wars combined.

There were over 3,600 abortions per day in 2000, 151 per hour, one every 24 seconds.

In that same year, for every 1,000 live births, there were 306 abortions for every 1000 live births.

* The annual number of abortions went from 744,600 in the
first year of legalization, to a high of over 1.6 million in
1990. In 1997, there were 1,312,990.

*There were more that 140,000 second and third trimester
abortions in 2000.

A survey of women seeking abortions indicated that only 7%
of women cited typical “hard cases” (rape, incest, or some
health concern with either the baby or the mother) as the
primary reason they were seeking abortion.

*A June, 1999 Wirthlin Poll found that 62% of respondents
support legal abortion in only three or fewer circumstances:
when the pregnancy results from rape or incest, or when it
threatens the life of the mother

At an average cost of $372, the abortion business is a $400
million a year industry.

Nearly half of all abortions are obtained by women who
have already had at least one abortion. In 1994 and 1995,
women who had already had 3 or more abortions obtained
7%, or nearly 100,000, abortions each year
