Instagram users shared many remarkable responses to Live Action\u2019s recent <\/span>post<\/span><\/a> that asked, \u201cDo you know how many children were aborted the year you were born?\u201d The post carousel shared several bar graphs revealing the number of abortions committed each year from 1973-2007.<\/span><\/p>\n

The<\/span> data<\/span><\/a> from Christian Life Resources clearly shows a steep increase in abortions following Roe v. Wade<\/em> in 1973. The abortion rate was at its highest in 1990 with 1,608,600 babies\u2019 lives ended in the United States. Abortion declined a bit in the years that followed, but never dipped below 1,200,000 babies being aborted each year.<\/span><\/p>\n

URGENT:\u00a0For every dollar given, 34 more people can be reached with the truth about abortion. Will you join us in this life-saving work as a monthly donor today?<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
