Abortion is a topic that till this day there is no final decision. There is no final decision on this topic because people think that woman have the right to do whatever they want which is true, but abortion should not be one of them. Some woman at the time of making that decision are not thinking right, they are not thinking about the future and how abortion has long term effects and how they will regret it.
If it is illegal to kill someone or something that is a living thing, them why do we think it 's okay to kill a baby or in this case a “fetus”? It 's the same thing, just because you can 't see it doesn 't mean it 's not there.

    In her article, “A Defense of Abortion,” Judith Jarvis Thomson maintains that there are instances where a woman might engage in voluntary and mutually consensual sex, but it does not give the fetus the right to inhabit a woman’s body. In a comparison, she points out the absurdity to allow a burglar to stay in your house, even though you might be partially to blame for their presence through a window left open. In this paper, I will reconstruct her argument using the analogy that an unplanned pregnancy is as akin to an open window as an invitation to an unwanted intruder and argue how it falls short of the mark and does not consider or take into account the responsibility attached as the consequence of one’s actions. In Thompson’s view, it is…

Those who are against abortion may feel they are “saving” the life of the unborn child, but many do not realize they are impairing, or even ruining, the life of the pregnant woman.

    If the baby was not a living thing, he would not be able to open his mouth or move his spine. The mother, doctor, and all involved are committing murder every time an abortion is performed.

Our society has many double standards because we conform to what makes others happy, but it is time we take a stand and help save the lives of many innocent children. A solution to this problem is to follow our constitution and make abortions illegal.…

    In today’s societies around the world, there is currently two factions of the highly controversial topic of abortion and whether it should be allowed or outlawed. These two factions on opposite sides are pro-choice and pro-life. Pro-choice supporters in essence believes a woman has the right to an abortion if she decides to do so.

    Some feel that abortion goes against their morals and religious beliefs. Others strongly believe that abortion is a woman’s right to decide. Personally, I believe it is a woman’s choice, because they know what is best for them. This debate between being for or against abortion has been going on since Roe won the Roe v. Wade case in 1973. As we have learned from history classes, Roe was a soon-to-be-mother who tried Texas’ laws because she wanted an abortion.…

    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.…
