Which is the best paraphrased passage for the following statement:

Genocide and ethnic cleansing threaten the demise of entire populations, while abortion kills 60
million lives in a year. Even fully viable infants in their mothers' wombs are no longer safe from
abortion that the American Cardinals call virtual infanticide. In addition, nuclear warheads and
missile systems proliferate among warring nations. A Nobel laureate describes the nuclear
standoff as a "complete balance of terror." Never in human history has man's survival been so
threatened as now, twenty centuries after the Savior's birth.

Strategies for Study, Thinking and Writing Skills)

their moms' wombs are no more protected from premature birth that the American Cardinals
call virtual child murder. Moreover, atomic warheads and rocket frameworks multiply among
warring countries. Never in mankind's history has man's survival been so undermined as now,
twenty centuries after the Savior's birth. (Dee, Preparing for the Coming of God's Kingdom)
