One of the most deceitful and insidious lies perpetrated
by the abortion industry is that 'abortion is 14 times safer than
childbirth'! Dr. Patrick Marmion and Dr. Ingrid Skop, both OB/GYNs, recently
co-authored a well researched paper entitled ' Induced Abortion and the
Increased Risk of Maternal Mortality'. Both the numerator and the denominator
of this equation are highly suspect. For instance, death certificates almost
never mention abortion as the underlying cause of death. Moreover, the
definition of Maternal Mortality subsequent to pregnancy has been expanded
from 30 days to 365 days. And states are still trying to agree on an uniform
definition of Maternal Mortality. Many issues are explained by Dr. Marmion as
to why the Maternal mortality rate is fraught with error. Conversely, in
Finland, that tracks the issue closely among its entire Finnish population,
has concluded that giving birth is four times 'safer' than abortion!
