I’m thinking of a number: a number that is more than 100,000, and less than 1,000,000.<br><br>68% of the people who are thinking of this number are women.<br><br>It is such a big deal that people are willing to protest a Presidential Inauguration to show their support.<br><br>And it’s such a big deal that people are willing to protest on the other side to show that they aren’t alone in their disagreement.<br><br>76% of the people who are thinking of this number are Christians.<br><br>33% of those are Protestants.<br><br>23% are Catholics.<br><br>Sometimes, people who are thinking of this number make other people angry with the things that they say.<br><br>Sometimes, people kill other people who are thinking of this number.<br><br>There are more people in the US who are thinking of this number than there are people in the majority of the other countries on Earth.<br><br>There are enough people thinking of this number to fill Texas. All of it. Plus the state of Pennsylvania.<br><br>There are more people thinking of this number than there are citizens of Australia, the country.<br><br>And if the people who are thinking of this number want to be something else, they have to think very carefully about what they are doing. The consequences are going to be very serious.<br><br>So we are very, very glad that we are thinking of this number. It’s a very, very big deal.<br><br>What number am I thinking of?<br><br>The number of abortions performed in the United States last year.<br><br>​
