Abortion
Abortion Statistics
Abortions are not rare. More than 62 million abortions are estimated to have happened in America since 1973, and about 30,000 happen every year in Michigan. Both national and Michigan statistics are available, giving details on who has abortions and where they occur.
Abortion Methods and Pictures
Anyone who wants to understand the issue of abortion must understand how abortions work and their effect on children in the womb. Abortion is an inherently violent procedure that causes the death of a unique and developing human being. (Warning: images on this page are extremely graphic!).
Abortion Pill
The abortion pill (mifepristone) is perhaps the deadliest substance known to man. Every year in Michigan, more than 15,000 unborn children have their lives ended by this drug. If the deaths of unborn children were acknowledged, the abortion pill would be the number three cause of death in Michigan, behind only heart disease and cancer.

What are the most common arguments in favor of abortion? How do prolife people answer questions about issues like abortion in cases of rape and incest? What are some ways prolife people can push past empty rhetoric and challenge the opposition to intelligent, thoughtful discussions?
Fetal Development
Our lives all began, of course, long before our births. Not open to dispute is the scientific fact that the life of every human being begins at the moment of fertilization. Learn more about the amazing development of children in the womb and important milestones in their growth.
Planned Parenthood
For many, Planned Parenthood Federation of America is a trusted name in affordable reproductive health care. In reality, Planned Parenthood is the leader of the Abortion Industry in America, performing more than 350,000 abortions every year.
Men and Abortion
Men are not alone when faced with an untimely pregnancy. The issue of abortion for a man is a paradox: while a man has no legal right in a woman’s abortion decision, he does have significant influence regarding the life of his unborn child. Abortion creates loss not only for women, but for men, too.
Families and Abortion
Women are not the only ones who can feel the pain and suffering brought about by an abortion. Studies show that abortion can also leave families heartbroken. Fathers, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and siblings also feel the residual impact of abortion.
Adoption
Every day, children are adopted by caring families into loving homes. Adoption can sometimes be the best solution to an unplanned pregnancy, but often it is not even considered. For the pregnant woman who is not equipped to be a parent, adoption provides a positive life-giving solution to a difficult situation.
Stem Cell Research and Bioethics
Medical research using stem cells or fetal tissue is a very misunderstood issue. Most people still do not realize that medical advances can be made without ending the life of a developing human being. Choosing to sacrifice the life of one innocent human being to benefit another is wrong.
