Debates

In this paper I will consider the arguments on abortion and investigate how, these debates are affecting people in different cultures. I will concede that some of these arguments do not mirror all of those who have a judgement on abortion but, rather a predisposed person. I will also argue that religious and cultural differences seem to play a role in these disputes and people’s decisions. While doing this I will discuss the difference between “pro-life and “pro-choice” as well as, the people…

addresses the questions that many in society have such as those who are unsure about abortion, the role of the government, a women’s right to her body, and how Christians should relate with those whom they disagree with.
