PRO-LIFE DAY OF SILENT SOLIDARITY
-- in October each year, people from all over this nation will give up their
voices for a day in solidarity for children in danger of abortion. Red arm bands
and red duct tape will identify them as taking part in the Pro-life Day of
Silent Solidarity. They will carry fliers explaining why they are silent and
educate others about the plight of the innocent children we are losing every
day.
Life Chains are usually held in
October, but may be conducted ANY time of the year.
STATISTICS
DID YOU KNOW
THAT...
Abortion Increases the Risk of
Premature Babies?
Published in BJOG: An
International Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, the Canadian researchers
found that women who had undergone a first or second trimester of pregnancy,
when most are conducted, increased the risk of low birth-weight babies and
premature babies 35 and 36 per cent respectively.
Those women who had
undergone more than one abortion had a 72 per cent increased risk for low birth
weight and 93 per cent risk of prematurity.
The figures come from an
analysis of 37 studies around the world, carried out between 1965 and 2001, to
discover reasons why babies are born underweight and premature.
There are approximately 60
studies linking abortion to prematurity and low birth weight.
African American women abort at
about 3 times the rate of white women in the USA. They also by far have the most
prematurity and low birth weight babies...
So why don't we hear about
this??
Let's get the word
out!!

KOMEN
Poll: 23 Percent to
Donate to Breast Cancer Research, Funds Go to Abortion Biz Washington,
DC
(9Oct09, LifeNews.com) -- A
new poll finds that 23 percent of Americans plan to donate money to go to
support breast cancer research. But what these donors may not understand is a
portion of what they give to the Komen for the Cure organization may wind up
supporting the Planned Parenthood abortion business. A new Rasmussen survey
released today shows 23% of adults plan to donate money toward breast cancer
research this month. Another 60 percent have no plans to donate while 17 percent
are unsure whether they will contribute.
The Rasmussen poll showed 39 percent of
Americans plan to purchase pink products from groups like Komen and another 9
percent say they will participate in a charity walk such as the Race for the
Cure.
When they support Komen, Americans may not be aware that Komen's own
figures show it gave $711,485 from April
1, 2005 to
March
31, 2006 to
Planned Parenthood abortion businesses and at least $726,445 for 2006-2007. www.lifenews.com
Abortion, especially during a woman's first pregnancy, has been shown to be statistically significant in the development of breast cancer.
