Abortion
If you are pregnant, you have an option. If you are trying to decide if abortion is the right choice for you, you probably have a lot of things to think about really hard. Learning the facts about abortion, may help you in making a good decision for yourself. If you do want to have an abortion you should consider learning more about parenting and adoption. Abortion is very common in the United States. One out of three women has an abortion by the time they are 45 years of age or when some women are not ready to be mothers yet. The personhood begins at conception and therefore abortion is the immoral killing of an innocent human being. I believed that abortion inflicts suffering on the unborn child and that it is unfair to allow abortion when couples who cannot biologically conceive are waiting to adopt. The people that go for abortion say that contend abortion is a right that should not be limited governmental or religious authority and which that outweighs any right claimed for an embryo or fetus. They strongly and unequivocally support Roe v. Wade and women’s right to choose a safe and legal abortion, regardless of the ability to pay, and they oppose any and all efforts to weaken or undetermined that right. They don’t believe that personhood begins at conception; they think it start at birth. Abortion is the termination of a pregnancy, not a baby. Personhood at conception is not a biological fact. The anti- abortion position is usually based on religious beliefs and threatens the vital separation of a church and state. Religious ideology should not be a foundation for the law in the United States. A baby should not come in the world unwanted? They claim fetuses are incapable of feeling pain when an abortion is performed. Not only has the biological development not yet occurred to support pain experience, but the environment after the birth, so necessary to the development of pain experience, is also yet to occur. Access to abortion is necessary because contraceptives are not always readily available. They think motherhood must never be a punishment for having a sexual intercourse. If they make a mistake, they do not want them to be punished by a baby. Abortion is an effective tool for population control. Malnutrition, starvation, poverty, lack of medical and educational services, pollution, underdevelopment, and conflict over resources are all consequences of the overpopulation. Abortion reduces crime. Teenage girls, unmarried women, and poor women are more likely to have unintended pregnancies, and since unwanted babies are often raised in poverty, their chances of leading criminal lives in their adulthood are increased. People against abortion, like me say, that abortion is a fundamental assault on the sanctity of innocent human life. Women deserves better than an abortion. Every effort should be made to work with women on considering abortion to be an enable and empower them to choose life. Unborn babies are human beings from the moment of conception. They have a fundamental right to live their life, which must be protected. Abortion involves killing an innocent human being, which defies a commandment from god. The bible says.” Thou shalt not kill.” Fetuses feel pain during the abortion procedure. If the fetus is beyond 20 weeks of gestation, I would assume that there will be pain caused to the fetus. I believe it will be severe and excruciating pain. The Hippocratic Oath, traditionally taken by
