Dr. Henry Morgentaler, recently awarded the "Order of Canada" and considered by many Canadians to be one of the most prolific murderers of the unborn, is a Polish Jew who survived the Auschwitz death camp. He refers to the Holocaust as the reason for his "every child a wanted child" slogan.

Morgentaler believes that one of the root causes of Hitler's genocide was "unwanted" abused children who grew up to embrace and practice Nazi philosophies out of hatred for their own abusers. In June 2005, at the University of Western Ontario, Morgentaler was quoted as saying, "Well-loved children grow into adults who do not build concentration camps, do not rape and do not murder."

The belief that abortion prevents child abuse fuels the pro-choice beliefs of many Canadians; however, the statistics have actually proven this theory dead wrong.

Take a look at these statistics from the Child Welfare Branch of the Ministry of Human Resources, in Ontario, Canada (these are the totals reported from all provinces except PEI and includes physical, sexual and emotional abuse):

• In 1971, there were 16,172 abortions and 422 reported cases of child abuse.
• In 1978, there were 38,782 abortions and 1,762 reported cases of child abuse.
• In 1994, there were 104,403 abortions and 30,366 reported cases of child abuse.

If Dr. Morgentaler's theory was right, the rates of child abuse should have decreased as rates of abortion increased. But all it takes is one look at these statistics to see plain as day that the number of child abuse cases have doubled and tripled at the same rate as the abortions! Statistically, this proves that abortion does not decrease the rates of child abuse. Child abuse has indeed skyrocketed.

Having a "wanted" child, doesn't ensure that child will not be abused; to say nothing of the child abuse of abortion itself. If we do not value a child while she's still inside her mother's womb, why should we value that same child when she's two years old or five years old?
