An abortion statistic you’ve probably never heard

August 16th, 2009 in Abortion ~ (2) Comments

At Patriot Academy last week I heard an interesting statistic linking abortion and breast cancer:

  • If you had an abortion before your 18th birthday, you have a 50% chance of getting breast cancer.
  • If you had an abortion after your 18th birthday, you have a 30% chance of getting breast cancer.
  • If breast cancer runs in your family and you have an abortion, you have a 100% chance of getting breast cancer.
  • If you have more than one abortion, you have a 100% chance of getting breast cancer.

Why aren’t breast cancer research proponents opposing abortion?

    What is your source for those stats?

    Great question. I wish I could remember the name of the lady that spoke during lunch one day at Patriot Academy and shared her experiences in the abortion industry. Do you remember her name?
