Facts About Abortion

Human Development

Many people who support abortion simply don’t know all the details of human beings' prenatal development. For some, learning these details is enough to change their minds about the morality of abortion. Though that's not the case for everyone, knowing these basic facts about human development can help you in your conversations about abortion.

Abortion Methods

The abortion industry often keeps the dark reality of abortion quiet, especially when it comes to how abortions are actually committed. That's because many abortion supporters often change their minds after learning about the violence involved. Conversations about abortions are easier when you're able to knowledgably explain what it is you're actually discussing - the killing of a preborn baby.

The Abortion Industry

As the nation’s largest, wealthiest, and most well-connected abortion vendor, Planned Parenthood is the ringleader of the abortion industry. Yet while they certainly have a monopoly on abortion, they aren’t the only guilty party. A large number of America's abortions are now committed by small local "clinics," all of whom bear blame for the tragedy of abortion.

Birth Control

Birth control plays a significant role in the supply and demand for abortion - and, in some cases, even causes abortion itself. Pro-lifers bear responsibility to educate themselves on contraception and engage in conversation about protecting life at all stages.

Other Life Issues

Students for Life doesn't just work to abolish abortion. We have a vested interest in defending all innocent life from unnatural, systematic termination. Stem cell research, in-vitro fertilization (IVF), and euthanasia all violate the fundamental human right to life - and they too deserve attention.
