Abortion debate

personal opinion is that abortion is an immoral choice but not always, depending on what the specific circumstances are. I have a moderate view on abortion which can be defined as, “moderates are willing to morally allow abortions in some cases and not others, but they give different reasons for doing so.” (White 84) People’s opinions are easily altered on this topic especially when it comes to personal experiences. In my opinion, I believe that most of the time abortion is in fact morally…

The tragic Orlando shooting was brought about by pro-life advocates who are “inciting hatred and violence,” according to a pro-abortion campaigner. In a blog entry posted on Sunday, pro-abortion blog Rewire’s editor Jodi Jacobson accused pro-lifers, conservatives, and Christians of sowing the seeds of violence and terrorism in America.

isn’t, but rather to make it clear that even if we consider a fetus to be a person, that abortion can still be morally permissible. This weakens her argument a great deal, instead of providing a proscriptive criterion to base the morality of abortion on, she simply provides what may be a series of fringe cases to establish that while abortion is normally wrong, it isn’t always so.

Abortions are one of the many topics that people around the world have different opinions on. One of the major questions asked; “Is abortions ethical?” Abortions are defined as “the expulsion of a fetus from the uterus by natural causes before it is able to survive independently” (Page, 2017). Abortions have been the most controversial topic that life itself has faced, because of this, groups of “as pro-life and pro-choice” (Morris, 2012), have been created.

I really care about the whole pro-life/pro-choice debate. I grew up in a Catholic family, went to Catholic grade school, and even attended The March for Life with my eighth grade class.Growing up I was always told that things like birth control and abortion were completely against the church. Of course I believed this. As I transitioned into a public high school and began to learn more I realized that even though I was raised a certain way, I was pro-choice. I agree that women should have the…

The reasons for this are heavily debated on because of both moral and religious reasons. The problem with this is that people have different views religiously and morally.…

America has been in a country-wide dispute regarding abortion since 1973. The Supreme Court legalization of abortion during the Roe v. Wade case is what caused the debate (Barkan 2014). Men and women of all ages, races, and beliefs have voiced different opinions, and this leaves our country divided towards the conflict of abortion.
