    The Immorality of Abortion In 1973, throughout Roe v. Wade case, the Supreme Court decided that a woman's choice of abortion was legally more logical than that of the child inside of the womb.

Kamm in her novel Creation and Abortion says it this way, “Legislation was lax then, and so the theory is that those who proposed the fourteenth amendment, citizens of their times, would not have included it to cover fetuses”(15). Here Kamm is arguing that the lack of scientific evidence, when the constitution was written, led to a problematic interpretation of the constitution which does not protect the child at all stages of development.…

Abortions should be illegal because it is unjust and purposeless slaughter to the unborn human being.…

Abortion is not the only method to take when a mother is confused by her feelings about the pregnancy for how her pregnancy came about (Arguments about Abortion).
