My heart aches at this news………
New research has revealed that one in four pregnancies now ends in abortion, according to ChristianToday.com.
The statistic comes from research conducted by the World Health Organization and the Guttmacher Institute.
One in four pregnancies amounts to around 56 million abortions every year.
The research also found that while the abortion rate in developed countries has declined in recent years, the abortion rate in third world countries has increased.
There were about 50 million abortions every year between 1990-1994, according to the research, but that number has risen to 56 million between 2010-2014.
