abor·tion (ə-bôr'shən) noun
The termination of a pregnancy after, accompanied by, or closely followed by the death of the embryo or fetus; especially: the medical procedure of inducing expulsion of a human fetus to terminate a pregnancy. (Merriam-Webster's Medical Dictionary, © 2002 Merriam-Webster, Inc.)
Abortion is one of the most common surgical procedures in the world, but the average person knows little of its gruesome reality. Year after year, it lurks in the shadows, quietly destroying more than 3,000 innocent human beings a day in the U.S. and 130,000 a day worldwide. In the U.S., this is happening because seven Supreme Court Justices decided that abortion was a constitutionally protected act. Without a vote, without public debate, abortion came in through the back door, never having to bear up under the weight of significant public scrutiny. Today, abortion is a billion-dollar industry which enjoys the support of very influential people in very high places. High schools and universities go to great lengths to graphically expose the dangers of smoking, drunk-driving and STD’s, but take a pass when it comes to abortion.

I am thoughly impressed with this website. I was caught when I saw a little ad in Facebook. I had to check it out. What I saw was amazing, I love the catchy shirts and the fact that we can do small things to help. I am always looking for an opportunity to end abortion, from standing up in silent prayer, to volunteering at my local Crisis Pregnancy Center. Now I am proud to have started using Facebook to end abortion. Also, thank you so much for providing a wealth of unbiased data on the subject. Keep up the good work.
