From the Wall Street Journal:
…In nature, 105 boys are born for every 100 girls. This ratio is biologically ironclad. Between 104 and 106 is the normal range, and that’s as far as the natural window goes. Any other number is the result of unnatural events.
Yet today in India there are 112 boys born for every 100 girls. In China, the number is 121—though plenty of Chinese towns are over the 150 mark. China’s and India’s populations are mammoth enough that their outlying sex ratios have skewed the global average to a biologically impossible 107. But the imbalance is not only in Asia. Azerbaijan stands at 115, Georgia at 118 and Armenia at 120.
What is causing the skewed ratio: abortion. If the male number in the sex ratio is above 106, it means that couples are having abortions when they find out the mother is carrying a girl. By Ms. Hvistendahl’s counting, there have been so many sex-selective abortions in the past three decades that 163 million girls, who by biological averages should have been born, are missing from the world…
Do you want to see catastrophe coming right at you? Do you want some proof that tampering with life via abortion causes horrendous problems? Do you want to know why the Culture of Death – hiding behind “choice” – is an unmitigated evil? Well, here it is…all of the talk of abortion before it was legalized was predicated upon how it would help liberate women but it is, instead, ended up in the mass murder of women…and a global imbalance between men and women which absolutely dooms us to rapid demographic decline, with all the societal disruption that will bring. This whole thing is the same as if over the past 40 years we had led out 78,000 women a week and shot them.
Don’t talk to me about “life of the mother” when 163 million mothers have been deliberately and with malice aforethought murdered by the Culture of Death. Abortion is an absolute evil and must be banned – and only when we do so, worldwide, will any of us have the genuine right to be called civilized.
