The leading cause of death on the planet Earth is abortion. To date in 2007, an estimated 34,937,500 abortions were performed; for comparison, 12,687,245 deaths were attributable to cardiovascular disease.[1] Excluding abortion, cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death.[2]

In fact, a person conceived on this planet has only a 75% chance of not being aborted.[3]
Furthermore, the number of abortions per day exceeds the number of marriages. So far in 2007, over 2,000,000 more aboritions were performed than marriages.[4]
