“They shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of their daughters… and the land was polluted with blood.” – Psalm 106:38
“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; and before you came forth out of the womb I sanctified you, saith the LORD.” – Jeremiah 1:5
THE CHRISTIAN POST reports: Abortion was the leading cause of death worldwide in 2024, according to new data published by Worldometer, which shows there were 45 million abortions globally last year.
This surpassed deaths caused by cancer (8 million), smoking (5 million), HIV/AIDS (2 million), traffic fatalities (1.5 million) and suicide (1 million), Breitbart noted, adding that the combined total of non-abortion deaths was estimated at 62.5 million, so the procedures accounted for over 42% of all human deaths in 2024.
Worldometer compiles ongoing tallies of global statistics. It tracks population growth, births, deaths, car production, book publications and CO2 emissions, among other data. Citing the numbers released by World Health Organization, it also registers the number of documented abortions performed worldwide annually.
In the United States, abortion accounts for roughly one-third of all annual deaths. The figure among African Americans reportedly exceeds 60% of total deaths in that community, Breitbart pointed out.
A 2016 study from the Open Journal of Preventive Medicine shows the disparity of black deaths through abortion. Rev. Clenard Childress Jr. has described the phenomenon as “black genocide.” He has said, “52 percent of all African American pregnancies end in abortion.” Childress also said abortion “is the most common operation performed on women, and yet, is the least regulated medical procedure.”
Data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention showed that black women have the highest abortion rate of any demographic, at 24.4 abortions per 1,000 women in the latest year for which there is data. White women have the lowest rate, at 5.7 per 1,000. This translated to black babies being four times more likely to be aborted than white babies.
Worldwide, there’s a “critical shortage of babies,” said LifeSiteNews, citing coverage from The Guardian, The Globe and Mail, Euronews and Politico.
LifeSiteNews compared abortion’s toll of 45.1 million unborn children in 2024 to Canada’s entire population of about 40.1 million, remarking that every year, the equivalent of an entire country is “killed by abortion”… (Continue reading)
