Abortion Murders 42.7 Million in 2020, Leader in Global Cause of Death

While the world's elite and socialists bring the world to a halt over a fabricated pandemic, there were 42.7 million abortions performed in 2020, Worldometer revealed. As a comparison, over the coarse of a year 8.2 million people died from cancer, 5 million from smoking, and 1.7 million of HIV/AIDS.

What about coronavirus? According to Johns Hopkins University, the worldwide deaths from the coronavirus in 2020 totaled 1.8 million, which has been inflated by overreporting COVID-19 as the primary cause of death.

Worldometer — voted one of the best free reference websites by the American Library Association (ALA) — tracks major world statistics, including population, births, deaths, cause of deaths, including abortions performed worldwide.

As you can see, there were more deaths from abortion in 2020 than all deaths from cancer, malaria, HIV/AIDS, smoking, alcohol, traffic accidents, and coronavirus combined.

The skyrocketing number of deaths from abortion, in fact, has led certain observers to call abortion “the social justice cause of our time,” overshadowing many other ongoing human rights violations like religious persecutions, political imprisonment, and genocide.

While the world celebrated Christmas and the New Year, abortion was legalized in Argentina, one of the last Catholic nations left that apposed the horrendous practice. Ireland was also a lasting bastion that fell in 2018.

In their yearly Christmas message, the Argentinean bishops denounced the government of Alberto Fernández for its “feverish obsession," declaring that the policy was legislated "as if it had something to do with the sufferings, fears, and concerns of most Argentineans.”

“This Christmas we find ourselves in a historic moment calling for an arduous rebuilding of employment, education, institutions, and brotherly ties,” the bishops stated, and instead the government committed itself to policies that promoted socialism and infanticide.

Breitbart, in reporting on the growing fight against abortion, articulated that "on December 28, Christians around the world celebrated the Feast of the Holy Innocents, commemorating the decree by King Herod that all male children in Israel under the age of two were to be slaughtered in an effort to kill the newborn Christ child...Pope Francis has compared the massacre of the Innocents to the modern practice of killing babies through abortion."

As slavery was to the 1860s, abortion is the human rights violation of our time. We all have a duty to see it brought to its destruction. Pray for the preservation and protection of the sanctity of life.

In Christ Crucified and the Most Victorious Heart of Jesus.
