It says of the hundreds of thousands
of Filipino women who have unintended
pregnancies each year, many face a
difficult choice either give birth to a
child they are not prepared or able to
take care for or obtain a clandestine
and often unsafe abortion and this is
what people always do when you talk
about abortion. But I mean, if we don't
offer safe abortions for people,
then you know what that mom is going to do
something dangerous and she might get
harmed if a woman gets an unsafe abortion.
I don't want her to die personally, but
if it happens or she has permanent
problems, she got what she deserved. And
here's the thing, I'm pretty sure every
woman that gets an abortion, it's
dangerous because that's not the way God
intended it. God doesn't intend you to
kill the baby inside of you. Of course
it's going to cause health problems. And
it says because abortion is highly
stigmatized and punishable by law, it is
extremely challenging to directly
estimate the number of abortions in the
Philippines as both women and providers
are likely to not report the procedure.
Now it says in the Philippines in 2015
to 2019 there are a total of 3.77
million pregnancies every year. Of these,
1.93 million were unintended and 973
thousand ended in abortions. So double
that is 1.946. So that's over 50%, 51%
based on the statistics, of unintended
pregnancies the baby was aborted. What's
interesting is not just that it's over
half, which is bad enough, but the rise
in the percentage. Because unintended
pregnancies from 1990 to 1994, 23%
abortions. 95 to 99, 25% aborted.
2000 to 2004, 27% aborted.
2005 to 2009, 35% aborted. 2010 to 2014,
48% aborted. 2015 to 2019, the most
recent statistics I have, 51% aborted. It
is more than doubled in 25 years. It's
more than doubled. Over half of
unintended pregnancies end in abortion.
So over half of pregnancies are
unintended in the Philippines and over
half of those end in abortion. Now look,
if it was 50% and 50%, that would be 25%
end in abortion. Over 50% on both sides,
you know what that means? Over one out
of four children are aborted in this
country. Over 25%. These are facts. Look
this stuff up. And what I would say is
instead of getting mad, it's like, notice
though not yet that the Philippines is
destroyed. Instead of getting stubborn
and saying, how dare you criticize my
country? It's like, notice thou not yet?
Look, I'm not a guest preacher. I
live here too.
