Pro-abortion scientist finds abortion
causes, rather than prevents, serious
mental disorders
results indicate over 90% of abortions
therefore likely committed in violation of
law
christchurch, new zealand, february 10,
2006 (lifesitenews.Com) – new research
from a pro-abortion new zealand scientist
has found that abortion causes serious
mental disorders. The study, by david
fergusson at christchurch school of
medicine & health sciences, tracked
approximately 500 women from birth to 25
years. It showed that women who have had
abortions, even when previous indicators
are taken into account, have a much higher
than average experience of serious
psychological disturbances.
Fergusson had anticipated that his
research would prove the abortion advocate
propaganda that abortion relieves
anxieties and gives women a greater sense
of control over their lives. He assumed
that problems experienced by post-abortive
women would be traceable to mental health
problems that had existed before the
abortion.
In england and new zealand, indeed, in
most jurisdictions around the world,
abortion is legal when a woman’s health
is considered to be threatened by the
continuance of pregnancy. The key to
making this provision the equivalent to
abortion on demand has been to define
“health” as including “psychological
health” as broadly as necessary to allow
abortion in every case. The great
majority of abortions are committed on the
“mental health” myth, according to the
abortion industry’s own admission.
That myth may now be seriously challenged
by the research that showed women who have
abortions, experience “elevated rates of
subsequent mental health problems
including depression, anxiety, suicidal
behaviours and substance use
disorders.”
the abortion industry is not going to be
pleased with the results of the research.
Fergusson presented his results to new
zealand’s abortion supervisory
committee, and according to the new
zealand herald, the committee told
fergusson that it would be “undesirable
to publish the results in their
‘unclarified’ state.”
