The Alan Guttmacher Institute, Planned Parenthood's own research organization tells us that 54% of all abortions happen despite contraception use. Only 8% of women having abortions have never used birth control, and 90% of the women most likely to have an abortion are on birth control. The Centers for Disease Control says, "induced abortions usually result from unintended pregnancies, which often occur despite the use of contraception."
Birth control has done little if anything to solve the abortion problem in America. For the last 25 years, more than a million lives are lost to abortion each year. It could just as easily be argued that the huge boom in sexual education and contraceptive availability has merely fueled an increasingly sex-obsessed society by convincing young people that sex can be enjoyed without consequence. This is not the case.
Eighty-two percent of all abortions (1.07 million a year) are performed on unmarried women. The way to eliminate these abortions is not by handing out more condoms. It is by educating these people about what abortion actually does, and teaching them to abstain from sex until they're ready to deal with a potential pregnancy.
Planned Parenthood laughs at the notion that teenagers can be taught to be abstinent, all the while telling teenagers that they can't. Why should we trust Planned Parenthood? Sexually active teenagers is exactly what they want. It's good for business. What's the bottom line? The only organizations that believe birth control is the best way to eliminate abortion are the organizations who have no interest in eliminating abortion at all.
