[PART 6 OF 6]

What are the implications of this concept of “the sanctity of human life”?

What about abortion?

First, let’s look at some statistics (Source: abort73.com ).

In 2002:

1,082 American children died from violent assault.
2,347 died from car accidents.
32,867 died from disease.
1,310,000 died from legal abortions.

In America, abortion kills nearly 4,000 innocent human beings every single day.

That’s 25,000 each week.
109,000 every month.
1.3 million every year.

Day after day, week after week, year after year … the carnage continues. Innocent unborn children are quietly destroyed behind sterile clinic doors. Since 1973, 40 million American babies have been aborted.

That date was chosen because it is the Sunday that falls closest to the anniversary of the Roe vs. Wade decision of January 22, 1973.
