I am adamantly opposed to abortion unless there is imminent danger to the mother’s life. Today, abortion is used as method of birth control and this is morally reprehensible and against my religious belief. After birth abortion is plainly murder.
Roe vs Wade was based upon a lie.
1.
Jane Roe had been raped.
The truth: She wasn’t rape
and she never had an abortion.
Jane Roe, whom we now know as Norma McCorvey, was just 21 years old when she became pregnant for the third time and sought an abortion in the state of Texas. Texas law, however, stated that a woman could only undergo an abortion if the mother’s life was at risk. McCorvey was put in contact with two lawyers, Linda Coffee and Sarah Weddington, who were looking for a pregnant woman to help them build a case to legalize abortion. McCorvey lied and said she had been raped. That lie became the basis for the legal fight against the District Attorney of Dallas County, Henry Wade. The lawyers knew that the case would never be finished in time for McCorvey to get an abortion and she ended up giving birth and placing the child for adoption. McCorvey not only admitted later on that she had lied about being raped, but she became pro-life and worked to end legal abortion up until her death in 2017.

60% of Americans wanted legalized abortion. This was a lie.
Dr. Bernard Nathanson was one of the main proponents of legalized abortion. He founded NARAL but later became pro-life. He admitted, “We persuaded the media that the cause of permissive abortion was a liberal, enlightened, sophisticated one…. Knowing that if a true poll were taken, we would be soundly defeated, we simply fabricated the results of fictional polls. We announced to the media that we had taken polls and that 60 percent of Americans were in favor of permissive abortion.
3.
One million illegal abortions had taken place in the U.S. - this was a lie.
The truth: The number of illegal abortions was a mere fraction of this.
Nathanson also admitted to additional lies admitted including that a million illegal abortions had taken place in the United States. In reality, he later said that number was “approaching 100,000” and that by fabricating this number, they were able to drum up support for abortion.
4.
10,000 women died annually from illegal abortions was a lie.
The truth: The actual number was around 300 — even less the year before Roe.
Senator Feinstein claimed the number of deaths from illegal abortion in the 1950s and 60s was between 200,000 and 1.2 million. She was completely wrong. Yet, the enormous lie that women were dying right and left from illegal abortion before Roe has been pushed for decades by pro-abortion groups who were trying to legalize abortion. Dr. Nathanson admitted this number had been fabricated as well.He said the real number was around 300 and that number had dropped consistently between 1930 and 1970 thanks to advances in antibiotic care.
In in 1972, the year before Roe v. Wade was decided, the Centers for Disease Control reported 39 maternal deaths from illegal abortion.
Killing preborn children has not helped end rape or poverty. It hasn’t helped women to receive equal treatment compared to men. All it has done is continue the lies that women are weak and incapable.
There are thousands of families who cannot have children and willingly want to adopt.
Abortion is nothing more than a cruel method used for killing innocent babies for the express purpose of implementing population control and designed as part of the plan to demoralize people into thinking it was acceptable.
