1 out of every 67 deaths in the WORLD is an American abortion
1 out of every 4 deaths in America is an American Abortion
Half of the deaths in the world are from abortions
Abortion is the leading cause of death in the world. It kills as many people as ALL of the other causes of death combined
We have lost more Americans through abortions (64 times more) than we did in all of our wars (12 wars) combined
The world kills more people through abortion than all of the deaths in the America combined (22 times as many)
The D-Day invasion of France (WWII) was the bloodiest in history. There were 53, 714 allied soldiers killed in the "Battle of Normandy." Yet, our world kills more people than that in just 9 hours through abortions
America has lost 589 soldiers in its first year of fighting in the Iraq War. The world, however, kills more people than that in just 6 minutes through abortions
I've noticed that a lot of people are practically doing backflips everytime they hear a human soldier die in Iraq, but looking at these statistics, that is dwindled in comparison. WHY aren't we OUTRAGED by this ATROCITY? WHY? That is MY question, I am simply AMAZED that people find this acceptable, and it is simply a shame on us all, for allowing such a tragedy to occur.

Well, he's a fundy, and secondly, he's on Myspace, making a source unlikely. ;) Intellectual dishonesty is rampant there. Fortunately, it's not contagious.
Worldwide Death Rates (2002)
Rank Cause Total deaths (in thousands) % of total
1. Ischaemic heart disease 7,208 12.6%
2. Cerebrovascular disease 5,509 9.7%
3. Lower respiratory infections 3,884 6.8%
4. HIV/AIDS 2,777 4.9%
etc.
Worldwide Abortion Rate (1995)
"Approximately 26 million legal and 20 million illegal abortions were performed worldwide in 1995"
This is the best I could find in a rush.
"1 out of every 67 deaths in the WORLD is an American abortion
1 out of every 4 deaths in America is an American Abortion
Half of the deaths in the world are from abortions"
Did this guy take 4th grade math? Half the deaths in the world would be 1 in 2, not 1 in 67. One in 67 is just over 1.4 percent.
Oh that's right. Cause they don't teach bout' division in home-skoolin'
Well, if blastulae=person, then the number one cause of death is random copying errors or inhospitable uterus or whatever random thing causes the vast majority of fertilized eggs to not implant or to spontaneously abort.
I can play this game to! Just look and be amazed at my skills.
Leading cause of death:
Brain failure. (You aren't death as long as you've got a brainwave)

I suppose I am not outraged for the simple reason that a foetus is not a person. It is not a member of society. Its existence is dependent upon the willingness of a person to carry it for nine months. And should that person choose to end the pregnancy, it is the sole decision of that person and no one else.
I agree with Luffy. Especially if half the deaths are from abortion. Our population is growing exponentially as it is, so, according to you, without abortion, our population would likely be over 10 billion.
Honestly, what is abortion harming? There has yet to be one single negative consequence due to abortion.
Well, counting even abortion as a "death," the leading cause of death would be antibiotics. Do you know how many bacteria are killed with them? They want to live just as much as the fetus does, and suffer just as much as the fetus does! The second-leading cause of death would likely be sex; whether you abort the fetus or not, a large number of sperm were killed beforehand. Every sperm is sacred! Let's end these atrocities!
Amos, if those abortion statistic are correct, assuming you count abortions, that would make them responsible for roughly a third of worldwide deaths by my estimates. Th eoverall death number you site were lower than I expected, but it's possibly this guy's figures are correct.
Yeah, but as you crazy fundies would say, "The dead babies (which werent alive in the first place?!?) are now with god, in heaven, blah blah blah" so really, you crazy fundies should be praising abortion.

Ultimate. Comeback. Evar.
We all know how reliable are those non-supported statistics.
Even so, 1 in 67 is a bit less than 1,5% of all deaths in the world.
As 50% of all deaths are abortions (if they are deaths), that means that abortions performed in the USA (not american abortions, abortions don't have nationality) are only a 3% of the world total. Taking in account that underdeveloped countries surely will do much less abortions, 3% is a very low part.
Fundies should be happy about living in a country with so few abortions.
All this thinking those data are accurate. Go figure.
They should be thanking god for abortions. Before they became legal, doctors would snap an unwanted baby's neck before it could draw it's first breath and mark it down as "stillborn".
Of course, it's somehow better to kill a person that can survive thier it's own than a parasite that can't.
Hide the antibiotics, the bible-humpers are a'comin!
If you don't believe in abortion, don't have one. But again, all people are given a choice and you cannot decide who is wrong or right. Your god will take care of that. Remember " Vengeance is mine, sayeth the lord". It's in your bible.
Up until a few months, the fetus can't feel any pain. After that, I believe abortion should be murder. Why would you do something so terrible to something that can feel it?
I also believe the father should have some say, too. It's just as much his kid as it is the mother's. Many women deny it's the father's too until she wants child support payments...
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
