Your energy and courage make me confident that you are strong enough to handle the truth about abortion, one of the most controversial and important issues today. Abortion is the deliberate, artificial, forcible destruction of an unborn baby. This differs from a miscarriage, which is a naturally occurring loss of a child not ready to be born. Abortion can be accomplished through a variety of procedures. Among them are the injection of a saline solution into the uterus or dissection of the baby in the womb with a surgical device.
