He took every one of our four receptionists, nurses, and anyone else who would deal with people over the phone through an extensive training period.  The object was, when the girl called, to hook the sale so that she wouldn’t get the abortion somewhere else, or adopt out her baby, or change her mind.  We were doing it for the money.”  When the same 1900 women who were polled were asked, “do you think that the clinic was biased on their advisement for you to have an abortion?”,  89% said yes. 

The most eye opening discovery in doing this research on abortion, was the things the abortionists revealed about their own thinking. Radio talk show host John Rice quoted an abortionist saying: “The first time I felt like a murderer, but I did it again and again, and again, and now 20 years later, I am facing what happened to me as a doctor and as a human being.  Sure, I got hard.  Sure, the money was important.  And oh, it was an easy thing, once I had taken the step to see women as animals and the babies as just tissue.”  Dr. Bernard Nathanson was quoted by the New England Journal of medicine as saying “I am deeply troubled by my own increasing certainty that I have in fact presided over 60,000 deaths.  There is no longer serious doubt in my mind that human life exists from the very onset of pregnancy.”  Abortionist Dr. Neville Sender is quoted as saying- “We know that it is killing, but the state permits killing under certain circumstances.  Magna Denes wrote a book entitled “The Necessity of Sorrow, Life and Death Inside an Abortion Clinic”  After two years of research she was quoted as saying, “There was not one doctor who at some point in the questioning did not say, ‘This is murder’.”

Women considering abortion should be able to hear what these abortion clinic doctors really think about abortion.  But even more importantly they should be able to hear what the women who have had abortions feel after their abortion.  The Elliot Institute did a study on the psychological reactions reported by women after abortion.  260 women were asked to answer what their feeling were after the abortion.  When asked if they experienced the following feelings they reported yes to :

Guilt- 93 %,	Horror- 59 %,
