As a matter of fact, however, the official government statistics are quite clear. The total number of women who died the year before abortion was legal nationally was 39. There were an additional 25 who died that same year from legal abortions. Not 5,000, not 10,000 – 39."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1442827238174603755.post-62967862871433448122007-04-30T05:47:00.000-07:002007-04-30T05:47:00.000-07:00Alan,Jonas did use that figure.

I responded by holding up an article by Mary Calderone - medical director of Planned Parenthood from 1960 - that stated that due to antibiotics and the fact that doctors were performing most illegal abortions that illegal abortions were no longer a dangerous procedure. <BR/><BR/>He did not have a response.Serge (Rich Poupard)https://www.blogger.com/profile/06648112986475922045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1442827238174603755.post-68393681368617522082007-04-30T05:44:00.000-07:002007-04-30T05:44:00.000-07:00Lydia,Thanks for your kind comments.

I once asked the audience who thought the pro-lifer would be using science and philosophy and the pro-abortion choicer would be depending on theology to make their points. It was pretty amazing. <BR/><BR/>I did "out" myself about 9 months ago on the old blog before Scott blew it up:-)Serge (Rich Poupard)https://www.blogger.com/profile/06648112986475922045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1442827238174603755.post-8817636383747632202007-04-29T15:28:00.000-07:002007-04-29T15:28:00.000-07:00Serge, Is this comment by your opponent accurate?"...Serge, Is this comment by your opponent accurate?<BR/>"Jonas said the leading cause of death for women of childbearing age in Missouri before abortion was legal was botched illegal abortions."<BR/><BR/>Sounds a lot like the 5000 or 10000 exaggeration that is now known to be a lie.Alan Greyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15039909118210086629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1442827238174603755.post-75979608393108584102007-04-29T09:14:00.000-07:002007-04-29T09:14:00.000-07:00Now I know Serge's name.

Isn't it noticeable and sort of pathetic the way it's always the pro-aborts dragging in religion? Every darned time. Ensoulment, "a woman and her god," "religions have different views," and on and on. They're the ones who don't want simply to look at the biological fact that the we're talking about chopping up a human being.Lydia McGrewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00423567323116960820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1442827238174603755.post-64108628037248873092007-04-28T17:05:00.000-07:002007-04-28T17:05:00.000-07:00uh, that should have been "Way to go" not "say to ...uh, that should have been "Way to go" not "say to go."
