I removed this statement from the article :

Many religious fundamentalists in America have publicly condemned Dr. Carhart for what he does. They claim he is a "child-killer" who stops children from being born out of malice. But Dr. Carhart claims that abortion will occur whether it is legal or not, and that he is only trying to make it safer for women who choose to have an abortion. He and other pro-choice advocates often cite the fact that many experts believe there was a higher rate of abortions before Roe v. Wade.

it's clearly the opinion of the editor, not encyclopedical.--Revas 20:32, 5 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] I can't find him practicing in Nebraska at all

I was looking for biographical information (sometimes you can get date of birth, etc) on the Nebraska medical board web site, and they have no record of him at all.ChristinaDunigan 00:19, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Article was not in line with the NPOV

I changed "partial birth abortion" to "Intact dilation and extraction" in the opening paragraph since that is the correct term, nobody uses "partial birth abortion" except abortion critics and opposers, therefore it cannot be considered a neutral term.

Second, I changed the word "killing" to "terminating" since the word "killing" obviously shows bias. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.79.95.148 (talk) 13:28, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
