Arguments Against Abortion

Improved Essays
Abortion is the ending of a pregnancy by removing a fetus or embryo from the womb before it can survive on its own. There are two different groups of people. There is the “pro-choice” group who believe that the women have the right to choose what she does with her body. Then there is the “pro-life” group that believes that the unborn child has the right to live. I am pro-life; I believe that there is no sense in killing the child that you brought into this world.
Having an abortion is basically murder. Just because the child is not living yet does not mean you have the right to kill it. Abortion is against many religious beliefs. In the bible there are many bible verses that refer to the killing of the unborn child. Isaiah 49:15 reads “Can

    Throughout the article Abortion, the Marginalized, and the Vulnerable: A Social Justice Perspective for Reducing Abortion, Steven Tracy struggles with the ever present issues of abortion as well as the social injustice surrounding this debate. Though Tracy aligns with the pro-life political stance, he presents criticisms for both sides of this important and heated debate. On the other hand, Thia Cooper never denies her stance that abortion should be legal, but along the same lines she brings up wrongs committed from both pro-life and pro-choice. Both articles bring to attention some of the faults of both sides of the debate, and both argue that the real problem behind the debate is not whether abortion should or should not be legal. Both articles…

    Pro Choice vs. Pro Life There are many reasons on both sides of this issue of why people believe it is or is not okay to have an abortion. Many believe that it is a woman’s right to choose to end her pregnancy or not. The U.S. Supreme Court has declared that it is a right guaranteed by the Constitution. Many would also believe that in choosing to end her pregnancy, she is committing murder, and that although the child is unborn, it is still a living being with the same right to live as its mother. Pro Choice gives women the right to decide if having a child is right for her, and that choice does not end the moment she becomes pregnant.…

    Abortion is the act of terminating a pregnancy by killing the embryo or fetus. An advocate for the legal option of killing an unborn child are those who are pro-choice. A person who is pro-choice believes that it is a woman’s right to decide, if she no longer wishes to carry her child, to abort the unborn child. They usually believe that human life does not begin until a certain stage in the pregnancy and that until then, the unborn child is just a clump of cells and it is not morally wrong to dispose of it. There are many reasons a person may give to get an abortion and the reasons are usually centered around egoism.…

    To say that the subject of abortion is polemic would be a great understatement to say the very least. The battle of abortion is one that has been fought repeatedly and tirelessly with no end. For some, the right to an abortion may oppose certain ethical, social, or legal issues that an individual may follow. However, those specific religions, ethnic groups, or associations with the same opposition to abortions are not by any means required to have an abortion. Groups that oppose abortions are entitled to peacefully protest their discontent however without substantial reasoning the anti or pro-abortion quarrel can only go so far.…

    In my own views of abortion I think that abortion is taking an innocent humans life. It really doesn't matter if he or she is not born yet. They are developing to have their own life's, to grow, not to be killed. Killing a baby that is not yet born is taking their own rights. It is easy for someone to take it away because the baby cannot fight for it.…

    Abortion is essentially defined as the termination of pregnancy. This topic is very controversial as many women argue that it is their fundamental right to make decisions about their body. This topic can be viewed through two perspectives: pro-life and pro-choice. The stance that pro- life individuals take is that abortion is illegal since the fetus and the embryo are human beings, thus, have the right to live. On the other side, pro-choice believers argue that women deserve to make the choice of whether they want to terminate pregnancy or not.…

    There has been a long existing debate of “Pro-Life” versus “Pro-Choice” about whether or not women should be able to abort a child. Many people being Pro-Choice will use the argument that the fetus isn 't a living person, and rather that it is the woman’s body; therefore the woman’s choice. There are other options women have such as adoption: waiting until the baby is born and providing the child a well-suited family to properly care for them. I believe any way you can avoid aborting a child is better than abortion because you give the child a chance for life. An unborn child in the womb contains all of the characteristics for it to be considered living, proving abortion is morally and scientifically wrong.…

    Abortions are one of the most controversial topics debated, with their being two sides: “pro-life” or “pro-choice”. Pro-life advocates argue that an abortion is a woman's right to choose, and women should be able to make decisions that involve their body and health. Pro-life advocates argue that an abortion is considered murder, with the reason being that an unborn child is living, fully human, helpless and voiceless while developing inside the womb (K, Brown). Although countless individuals feel that abortions should be a woman's right to choose, abortions should be illegal altogether because it denies and deprives the rights of life, can result in medical complications and psychological trauma for women, and because of the fact that a fetus is capable of feeling pain. TFP Student Action states since the…

    Abortion is a huge problem that has caused a wide range of controversy all over the United States. There are two sides to the problem, which are people who oppose abortion or support it. Abortion becomes a big deal when trying to decide whether a fetus should be considered a human being already when a woman aborts. In my case I believe that a woman should not be able to abort a child inside her unless there is some type of serious medical issue where the child may not come out alive. When a woman aborts a child, they did not want, it is like the killing of another human being who had no say or ever did anything wrong to deserve it.…
