It is almost midnight, but at this stage most of the population doesn’t even care about the endless procession of babies that are having their lives snuffed out at our abortion mills. Terms such as “massacre”, “slaughter’ and “genocide” are not nearly strong enough to describe what is taking place on a daily basis, and the vast majority of us seem to think that there will never be any serious consequences for what we are doing. But the truth is that we shall surely reap what we have sown.

According to the official website of the World Health Organization, there are approximately 73 million abortions globally each year…
Around 73 million induced abortions take place worldwide each year. Six out of 10 (61%) of all unintended pregnancies, and 3 out of 10 (29%) of all pregnancies, end in induced abortion (1).
Comprehensive abortion care is included in the list of essential health care services published by WHO in 2020. Abortion is a simple health care intervention that can be effectively managed by a wide range of health workers using medication or a surgical procedure.
Just think about that number for a few moments.
If you multiply that number by 10, you get 730 million abortions in just one decade.
And if you multiply that number by 20, you get almost 1.5 billion abortions in just two decades.
According to Google, the total population of the globe right now is just 7.888 billion.
So we are talking about a death toll that would represent a very sizable portion of the entire global population.
In all of human history, we have never seen carnage of this magnitude.
If you believe that we can just keep doing this indefinitely without suffering any consequences, you are dead wrong.
Of course it is not just babies that die. According to the WHO, lots of mothers are dying too…
Each year, 4.7–13.2% of maternal deaths can be attributed to unsafe abortion (3). In developed regions, it is estimated that 30 women die for every 100 000 unsafe abortions. In developing regions, that number rises to 220 deaths per 100 000 unsafe abortions (2). Estimates from 2012 indicate that in developing countries alone, 7 million women per year were treated in hospital facilities for complications of unsafe abortion (4).
It wasn’t always this way.
Prior to the 1970s, abortion was a lot more rare.
But then Roe v. Wade made abortion legal in all 50 U.S. states, and that opened the floodgates for legalization efforts all over the globe.
50 years later, Roe v. Wade was overturned in the United States.
Of course that decision didn’t make abortion illegal in the United States, but suddenly states were free to make their own laws.
It was a golden opportunity for us to change direction.
But that didn’t happen.
Instead, the number of abortions performed in the United States actually went up during the 12 months immediately following the overturning of Roe v. Wade…
The average number of abortions performed each month in the US rose in the year after the supreme court overturned Roe v Wade and allowed more than a dozen states to ban the procedure, according to data released on Tuesday from a research group backed by the Society of Family Planning.
This stunning finding masks a deep divide in abortion access in the US. The number of abortions performed in states with near-total or six-week abortion bans plummeted, with providers in those states performing 114,590 fewer abortions than they would have if Roe had not been overturned, according to data collected by the research group, WeCount.
At the same time, abortions rose dramatically in the states that still permit the procedure. In total, those states performed 116,790 more abortions than expected.
A number of red states did pass new abortion laws, but some of those laws only made abortion illegal after a pregnancy had reached a certain number of weeks.
Many in the pro-life movement hailed such laws, but the truth is that they actually legalized most abortions.
