Quotes to Note

“We have heard a great deal about stem cells lately.

"There are two basic types: stem cells gathered by killing human embryos, and stem cells from adults or from the placenta or umbilical cord of newborn babies.

"We need to promote the use of umbilical cord & placental blood stem cells, and adult stem cells, because these are morally and ethically acceptable -- and because they work!

"The people of America need to be made aware that not one person has to date been 'cured' using stem cells from human embryos.

"On the other hand, adult or placental stem cells have been used successfully in thousands of medical procedures so far."

Tim Hughes, M.D., F.A.C.O.G.

Abortion Kills More Black Americans than the Seven Leading Causes of Death Combined: CDC 2005 data

Abortion kills more black Americans than the seven leading causes of death combined, according to data collected by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for 2005, the latest year for which the abortion numbers are available.

Abortion killed at least 203,991 blacks in the 36 states and two cities (New York City and the District of Columbia) that reported abortions by race in 2005, according to the CDC.

During that same year, according to the CDC, a total of 198,385 blacks nationwide died from heart disease, cancer, strokes, accidents, diabetes, homicide, and chronic lower respiratory diseases combined.

These were the seven leading causes of death for black Americans that year. [http://www.cnsnews.com/news/article/55956CNS News; ALL Pro-Life Today, 26Oct09]
