“It is a poverty to decide that a child must die so that you may live as you wish” (Mother Teresa). *** off of google….. Abortion has been a debatable topic for quite some years now; even though no one could ever seem to come to a consensus on whether it is wrong or right, good or bad; abortion was made legal on January 22, 1973.
