Is abortion morally acceptable?
Abortion is morally acceptable because “fetus does not have a life to lose” (Steinbock). We based our claim on scientists, who have yet to agree, when a fetus can possible be a being. It’s acceptable in the cases of the fetus that have not yet developed any nervous system (brain stem). This help the moralist feel less guilty because lack of the nervous system would mean, the fetus won’t be able to feel pain or pleasure. The objectors might say, what’s the difference between a fetus and a person experiencing a life and death situation. The contrast between the two is the fetus have no prior experience and its own interest; as for a person who’s in a coma or any similar type of situation, they have their own interest.
