    Any woman that has ever had a late-term abortion knowingly and willingly committed fetal homicide. According to Dr. Jen Gunter, an OB/GYN and a pain medicine physician, "1,186 late-term abortions were conducted in 2012" (Gunter). That equals 1,186 lives that were ripped from this world... futures stripped from human beings. Although a fetus may not be a life since it relies on a host to survive, late-term abortion should be made illegal because the fetus can feel the pain of the D&X procedure, the D&X procedure is harmful to the mother, and women are using abortion as a form of birth control rather than a form of termination in a time of crisis.…

    Rape is not necessarily the only instance where abortion is better for both beings. Take a drug addict for example, the woman may not be able to stop her addiction at the moment in time she is pregnant, and would be much safer for the embryo to be aborted. If she is forced into giving birth, the likelihood that the quality of life will be good for the child is slim to none. The child may face neglect and even gradual death rather than if the fetus was terminated at an appropriate time.…

    I am pro-choice, but not because I do not value human life, and most certainly not because I hate children. I believe that human life is of the utmost importance, but I also think that women’s rights are essential. It is not inhumane, or unfair for women to seek out an abortion, it is their medical decision, and it is their right to have control over their own body. People state that the mother could simply give the child up for adoption, but that may not be the best option, and there are a number of reasons as to why someone would seek out an abortion. Pregnancies can be extremely costly, and the mother may be unable to afford to keep the child.…

    A theory about religion is that life starts at conception. People with other beliefs should not be forced to abide by this certain theory. Legal abortion today states that human life starts at birth, but when a baby is born, it grows and develops into a teenager, then a mature adult, until it finally becomes old and dies. Humans are made to develop and change, so a human becomes a human during conception.…

    Rape can be defined as “Forcible sexual relations with a person against that persons will” (7). When a woman is raped it significantly affects their mental and emotional state so in order to preserve their mental state an abortion may be found medically necessary. I believe that If a woman is forced into sexual relations by a male and becomes pregnant she should not have to carry a baby fathered by her rapist. The mental and emotional damage that can cause a woman is…

    “When a man steals to satisfy hunger, we can safely assume that there is something wrong in society so when a woman destroys the life of her unborn child, it is evidence that either by education or circumstances she has been greatly wronged.” Said by Mattie Brinkerhoff. Abortion is increasing tremendously. There are 40-50 million abortions that occur per year, that means there are 125,000 unborn babies that die every day. In fact, Frank Pavone states that “If we took a moment of silence for each person lost to abortion we would be silent for over 100 years.”…

    Rape contributes a lot to women having abortions. I agree that rape is a terrible thing, but I know that if one is impregnated in this way that they should consider all the options they are given before making a rational decision. I believe that many women are not well educated on the different options that are available when becoming pregnant. A number of families across the globe are incapable of having children, and it breaks my heart because of the people who willingly terminate pregnancies. During these tough times these women go through I pray that they look to God for guidance and trust in His plan.…

    The definition of an abortion is the process of ending a woman’s pregnancy by the termination of an embryo or fetus inside the mother’s womb (Pros and Cons Abortion). During the process of an abortion, the unborn child is not treated as a human being. The baby is treated as a nuisance; it is not given the proper care, it is regarded as a nonliving thing (Abortion Facts). 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). There is no reason to punish a child when they have no control of what is going on in the world around them.…
