Personal Narrative: The Right To Life

One of the moral issues we covered in class that caught my attention the most was abortion. My views have not changed as a result of what I have read. For example, In “The Wrong of Abortion” by Patrick Lee and Robert P. George they explained, the right to life is something that is earned at that time of conception and the right to vote comes as a right when you are at the age in life to vote. However, someone's right to life comes at conception. It does not change no matter the circumstances that life gives us. I believe that everyone deserves to get a chance at life no matter what.

However, I disagree because God is the only person who gives us life and takes it away. My position is letting the person die naturally. Watching someone in pain can be hard, but if we were to pray and believe in miracles God can do the impossible at the very last minute. That is why I will keep my position of Euthanasia not okay. It doesn’t matter if it’s active or passive. I believe a human should die naturally. In conclusion God is the only person who can take your life and no one
