  1. About 56 million people (worldwide) will die this year.  These statistics, however, do not include the number of American Abortions.  Since there will be around 850,000 American abortions this years, this put the total deaths at 56.8 million.  This means that one out of every 67 deaths (850,000 / 56,850,000 *100  = 1.49%, which equals 1 out of 66.9)will be from the American abortions.

  2. America's population is around 290 million.  The death rate in America is 8.44%.  This means that 24.5 million Americans will die this year (290 million  x .00844 = 2,447,600).  These deaths, of course, do not include American abortions.  Therefore, the total deaths in American will be 3.3 million.  This means that one out of every 30 deaths in America will be from American abortions (850,000 / 3.3 million =  25.78%, which is 1 out of 3.88).

  3. About 56 million people (worldwide) will die this year.  These statistics, however, do not include the number of American Abortions.  There are about 53 million abortions performed every year in the world.  That means that half of the world's deaths are from abortions.

  4. If you add up all of the others deaths in the world, it almost equals the number of deaths from abortions. 

     
  5. In the past 12 American wars, we lost 651,543 American soldiers.  Yet, in the past 30 years, we have lost over 41 million Americans to abortions.  That means we lost 64 times more Americans through abortion than we have in all of our wars combined (41,704,000 / 651,543 = 64).

  6. There are (on average) 2,447,600 deaths a year in America.  There are about 53 million abortions in the world every years.  Therefore the deaths from abortions are 22 times the deaths in America (53,000,000 / 2,447,600 = 21.65).  Actually, many sources say there are 55 million abortions a year and other sources put the numbers as high as 60 million.  However, to stay on the conservative side, I chose to use the smaller number of 53 million.

  7. There are, on average, 1.68 abortions performed every second in the world.  Therefore, it would take 8.9 hours to accumulate 53,714 deaths (53,714 / 1.68 / 60 seconds / 60 minutes = 8.88 hours).
