Abortion debate

David Foster Wallace’s “Good People” shows Lane A. Dean, Jr. and his girlfriend, Sheri Fisher, as they struggle to decide to go through with an abortion. Lane and Sheri are Christians, so abortions are considered morally wrong according to their religion. Lane thinks it would be best for him if Sheri went through with it, but he feels guilty about it because he grew up being told it was wrong. They should stop worrying about it being wrong and think about what is best for their futures. Lane…

keeping their babies or not. The government is trying to make abortion illegal, but what if a woman does not want to have the baby due to a critical health diagnose to the baby like a syndrome? Why making that developing live suffer an entire life? Even that this cases are a very small percentage, 3 percent, of services performed in this clinics, government assumes that is the most popular service offered, and because they are against abortion, they are against the Planned Parenthood Program.…

most important issue in the 2016 Presidential election is abortion. Abortion is one of the most important issues because abortion is murder. Since abortion is murder to innocent unborn children, the procedure should be illegal. Although restrictions of abortion give women enough information about abortion to protect the lives of unborn children, the law is never enough. Government funds need to go to health clinics that do not provide abortions instead of going to Planned Parenthood because the…

product of love and affection. Every infant has a right to life and by all means should be given an opportunity to grow. Reproduction and birth controls should, therefore, concentrate on pre-conception measures and not after conception measures such as abortion. It is not only unjust but also illegal as it is a form of murder. For such kind of actions to receive unprecedented support from Planned Parenthood is a major drawback to our society and must be rejected at all costs. The Senate in the…

In The Handmaid’s Tale, Margaret Atwood opened my eyes to how society could be someday, if we continue down some paths we are going. One of the main issues Atwood shows in this book was fertility and how important it is to the town of Gilead. Men have most of the power in this world and women are doing all the “typical” women roles. Women are not valued for the right reasons in Gilead, I think they are being used for their ability to reproduce. In the town of Gilead, fertility is big issue.…

I took great issue to your editorial (”Why I Am A Pro-Life Feminist: Women’s Rights and Abortion ”Rights” Don’t Mix”, Emily Derois, Aug 29), as the author of this article makes some bold claims. Being a feminist, I could not help but react to the title. To me, feminism means that every woman has the right to her own body and can do whatever she chooses with it, and neglecting a woman’s right to have an abortion is a serious breach in the feminist ideology. The author has their arguments and they…

“I voted for the candidate that does not support abortion. I voted for the candidate that sought to keep the Church’s ideals. When you vote, please remember the Church’s standards.” Essentially, my priest told all the attendants to vote for Trump because his presidency will prevent the practice of terminating unborn babies. Well, if you’re going to phrase it that way, abortion just seems like an iniquity. I gave some thought to the word “Abortion” itself. Why does it just sound so awful? Maybe,…

an abortion king. They perform more abortions than anything or anyone else. That might have triggered John Kyl to say “ 90% of what Planned Parenthood does is abortions.” Statements similar to these are important because it isn’t a passable offense when elected officials would lie to Americans. That is what this statement is. It is a false statement, being said as though it was fact, and that is the definition of a lie. Actually, only 10-12% of what Planned Parenthood does is abortions.…

Discussion 12.2 Question #1 The Supreme Court should in fact adopt a more narrow view of First Amendment speech protection in an effort to possibly curb hate crimes that may be associated with such speech. Unfortunately end of the Supreme Court hate speech is protected as long as it does not prevent an intent or an immediate threat to an individual. In the regards to the Westboro Baptist Church those individuals who are protesting especially at a funeral of a fallen soldier may not exhibit any…

immigrants aspiring to have children born in the US in order to obtain citizenship and government assistance. There are also religious falsehoods that create the assumption that because the majority of Latina women are Catholic they do not believe in abortions. The Latin diaspora ranges from central and south America, including some Caribbean islands. In…
