Around our world 42 million abortions are performed yearly. The United States accounts for 1.37 million. (The Center for BioEthical Reform).
Another way to think of that is
- 42 million infants not hugged or kissed by mom and dad
- 42 million kindergartners gone
- 42 million 2nd graders who will never have to lose their two front teeth.
- 42 million 7th graders who will never win a science fair
- 42 million 9th graders who will never go through driver's ed
- 42 million teenagers who will never know a prom
- 42 million young adults who will never graduate
- 42 million young people who will never start their own careers
- 42 million young husbands and wives that will never start their own families.
It is in my opinion that people often forget that what they are calling a "fetus" is actually the beginning of a life. Humanity seems so be so wrapped up in whether or not the "fetus" is alive, they appear to have forgotten the intended purpose of that baby. It was intended for life.
I may not know what the "turning point" is that we should consider the baby "alive", but I think that may not be the point. I think we should remember the intention of that baby no matter what the science tells us is the beginning of life.
