229: The State of Abortion in America Today

August 21st, 2026
by Pastor Michael Gabbert
In 2021, Planned Parenthood published an article, arguing that abortion proponents should change their language and quit using the terms pro-choice or pro-abortion. They said the problem is that those terms seem to imply that abortion is a bad thing. They seem to imply that abortion is a bad thing. Instead, they said, let's change the terminology to other more positive upbeat things, because we don't want to stigmatize abortion as somehow being bad. Well, that's just what abortion proponents would do. This is typical. Instead of confronting the reality that abortion kills a living human baby, their solution is, let's monkey with the propaganda and the vocabulary so that we can continue to hide the reality of this barbaric practice. Let's talk about the state of abortion in America today.
