3 Numbers: America’s New Culture of Death

Flag raising at Iwo Jima, during WWII in the Pacific. Note the wreckage and carnage underfoot.

50 Million

50 Million is the number of people killed during WWII, the majority of which were civilians.  Between 1973-2009, that is the same amount of people who died in the U.S. as a result of abortion.

1/3

1 out of 3 of the babies now in existence have been aborted in that span of time (’73-present).  Those who have digested this number, you can see why they are so enveloped in anger toward the government which continues to fund abortion (via 330 Million+ of Federal tax dollars to Planned Parenthood, which holds tax exempt status) and allow it.  In the name of helping the weak and protecting the most innocent and vulnerable, Planned Parenthood has been killing the unborn and recently born, allowed to perform major procedures on minors without guardian consent, and sheltering sex offenders in the process.

27

Obama has lifted 27 prior restrictions on abortion which has advanced not only abortion, but partial birth abortion (infanticide).  Though he lied to Notre Dame in his speech regarding creating responsibility and lowering the amount of unwed mothers that would have to get an abortion (policies enacted by W. Bush), he did not lie when he stated that pro-life legislation would be a priority if he were elected.  There are now 27 more reasons and counting why abortion can be used as a contraceptive.

Ironically, government was meant to protect the innocent and most vulnerable (Romans 13).
