336 million abortions under China's one-child policy
The Telegraph ^ | Friday, March 15, 2013 | Malcolm Moore

More than half a billion birth control procedures, including at least 336 million abortions, have been performed in the name of the one-child policy, China's Health ministry revealed yesterday.

Beijing - The figure illustrates the enormous impact that the one-child policy has had on China in the four decades since it began.

Official statistics showed that in addition to the terminations, Chinese doctors have sterilised 196 million men and women since 1971.

Perhaps unexpectedly, most people in China support the one-child policy, believing that the country would have suffered an impossible drain on food and resources without it, according to a 2008 survey by the Pew Research Centre, which found more than three in four Chinese were in favour.

There are more than 13 million abortions a year, or 1,500 an hour, in China, according to government researchers, who blame the high figure on a lack of sex education.

Fewer than ten per cent of sexually active couples regularly use condoms, according to the state-run Science and Technology Research Institute. By comparison, there are roughly 11 million abortions each year in India.

All it means is that China is a more efficient murder machine than the US is. That’s all.

This barbarity is hollowing China. Chinese culture is withering. From 1950 thru 1990 it crudely mimicked the values of Eastern Europe. Today it apes the worst of Western decadence.

Chinese cannibalism of infant flesh outrages the world

Thursday, May 10, 2012 - Rights So Divine by Youngbee Dale

Washington, May 10, 2012 — China’s one child policy, baby trafficking, and sex trafficking of North Korean women aren’t the worst human rights violation happening in the country. Aborting innocent and healthy unborn children and eating them to boost one’s stamina and sexual health is. 

South Korean customs officials recently seized thousands of pills filled with powdered human baby flesh arriving from China. Since August 2011, South Korean officials have intercepted more than 17000 pills smuggled from China.

South Korean officials became aware of a horrific practice of eating aborted fetuses after Seoul Broadcasting System showed a documentary on Chinese doctors who performed abortions and then ate the fetuses. One Chinese doctor on the documentary took out fetuses from his refrigerator

I wonder what will happen when all of those male babies who were not aborted want to marry and there aren’t enough women for them?

What will their government do for them then? I guess they will be conscripted into the army of a million (very angry, very frustrated) men marching from the North to the Middle East for the final battle.

by a factor of about 7.

i think it’s a good indicator of the difference between a godless socialist regime over a westernized judeo-christian country fighting socialism and secularism.

not to say that gives us a pass, i am just saying here we offer cultural resistance and because we are here and able to fight for our side and pass down christian morals and offer alternatives that people just can’t do over there without risking never being seen again.

Lack of sex education?

None of those Chinese officials have a true understanding of human nature.

Sounds like they are the ones who have a lack of education.

Mmm!!

Fr. Ricardo said something this am that I’ve been suspecting all along.

We have 55 million abortions in the US legally since Roe v Wade decision.

Those are surgical.

BTW, he described a partial birth abortion two different types, dismemberment and brain extraction.

The other type of abortion is chemically induced by hormone manipulation, oka the pill.

He attributes another 55 mil or so to those. I do too.

We are no better than China, in this regard, as a country, as we show no signs of stopping before we get to these numbers, and we are up there with Hitler and Stalin and Pol Pot.

I'm ill from thinking of the carnage.

Add another 60 million born and killed in the "cultural revolution".

Progressives are for the "little man". /sarc
