OOPS: Pro-Abortion Study Immediately Debunked

Science is not on the side of the pro-abortion movement. For example, even though 96% of biologists agree that life begins at the moment of conception, the pro-abortion movement claims it’s unknowable or can be determined by each individual.

Now a new ‘study’ by the pro-abortion Bixby Center is being debunked by the media and pro-life leaders. The study claims, astonishingly, that 99% of women do not regret their abortions.

Except that’s not true at all.

One researcher noted that many women in the study refused to participate in the follow-up questions about regret. Michael New writes,

“From 2008 to 2010, Turnaway Project researchers sought participants at more than 30 abortion facilities located in 21 U.S. states and found 667 women who obtained abortions to participate.  However, less than 38 percent of the women they asked actually agreed to take part in the study. It seems likely that the women who made themselves available for the study might have had either a higher level of decisional certainty or fewer moral qualms about obtaining an abortion, skewing the results.
