What does abortion mean to you? Well, according to my google search, abortion means the deliberate termination of a human pregnancy. Most people believe that if the baby miscarriages during an operation or just in general, that that is an abortion, but it is only if you kill the fetus intentionally in order to save yourself. You should never do an abortion thinking that the baby is “not alive” or it “doesn't count as murder.” Also by exterminating your baby, you are not following God’s plan for us here on earth. Abortion is never okay because the fetus is basically a human being and that it is a mortal sin.

But, the mother, and the doctors, should always fight for both of their lives. There’s this thing called a perimortem cesarean which is a cesarean section done peri (around) mortem (death). It refers to the surgery done when a mother is dying or sometimes already clinically dead. It is used to save the mom and the baby, and American Heart Association Guidelines believes that perimortem cesarean should be considered (Karkowsky). Therefore, there should be no reason as to why mothers should have to kill their babies to save themselves if there are ways to go around have to kill the fetus
