Abortion Argument

The topic of abortion and its legality is one that is strongly felt on both sides of the issue. This is one of the most heated arguments you can get into and if I am being fully honest I am a little nervous about publicizing my view point. But here is my research and arguments for whether abortion should be legal or not.

Abortion is one the most controversial topics in the United States. The issue at hand is should abortion be legal or not. It is highly debated with in both media and politics. According to History Channel, “Supreme Court legalizes abortion”, in 1973 the U.S. Supreme Court Case Roe V. Wade ruled that women have the constitutional right to privacy, thus legalizing abortion. This law gave women the right to terminate a pregnancy during the first two trimesters. This sparked huge controversy between pro-life and pro-choice believers. Both pro-life and pro-choice have numerous arguments to justify their opinions. In a report done by WebMD, “Abortion-Reasons Women Choose Abortion,” nine out of ten abortions are performed within the first twelve weeks. Abortion should be legal because it is a women’s constitutional right, mental and physical health, and other.

The purpose of this essay is to set out an argument that abortion is wrong. Some claim that only in “rare” instances, such as rape or within a few days of contraception, abortion is acceptable. I will agree that there are certain circumstances that abortion is more “acceptable” than other times, albeit however few and far between these instances arise. Instances that make abortion more “okay” are rape, and once it is discovered that the mother's life is in danger if she were to carry the baby the full term of the pregnancy. The basis for my argument comes from reading two opposing essays on abortion , in regards to whether it is “right” or wrong, “A defense of Abortion” by Judith

After reading the article, “Why It’s Become So Hard to Get an Abortion”, by Margaret Talbot, I am caught in the middle of pro-choice and pro-life. Talbot provides the reader with an even amount of examples explaining the beliefs of each stance. Being raised as a Catholic, my church has always preached to bring an end to abortion. Although, being a young female, I also feel we should have the choice. I think there is a way to respect personal beliefs and religion, while still being in charge of your body. This being said, I don’t agree with the act of taking the life of an innocent human without it being a medical necessity. This brings up another contrasting point, I believe that if the woman seeking the abortion doesn’t have the means to raise

Why abortion is immoral by Don Marquis is the start of two discussions pertaining to whether abortion should be acceptable in our modern society. The argument, Marquis makes, is that abortion actually deprives the fetus’s “future-like-ours.” Many philosophers support Marquis’ belief by arguing that fetuses have their own possibilities; thus, killing fetuses is absolutely wrong (Marquis, 105). Nevertheless, there are also other philosophers who criticize Marquis’ view in order to prove that abortion is not immoral since the fetus has no right to live. One of them is Peter K. McInerney, who wrote Does a Fetus Already Have a Future-Like-Ours? McInerney demonstrates the fact that fetuses have little

When it comes to the topic of the abortion, most of us will readily agree that it’s a prolonging subject in our society. Governor Rick Perry and state senator Wendy Davis has opposing views of abortion in Texas. Governor Rick Perry on one point of view speaks of the unhealthy conditions of abortion clinics in Texas. In his argument, Rick Perry opposes the procedure used by these clinics, claiming the standards and conditions are not met to that of those of how an abortion clinic should be. Senator Wendy Davis, on the other hand, stresses on the trials and tribulations Texas women would have to face under this law. With the use of voices from women in Texas, she argues against this law. Voicing her opinion on, whether the passing of this law would restrict basic women rights.

Abortion is widely controversial topic. Whether you are pro-life or pro-choice, it remains a sticky discussion and a hard subject to address. As a social worker we are thought to provide services despite what we may or may not believe. If you are a pro-life life activist, you’re against abortion. You believe that no matter the circumstance, life is important at any stage. If you are pro-choice you believe that circumstances matter and a woman should always have a right to choose. It is my personal belief that life is important at any stage, however you should always have the power to choose and make your own decision based on your specific circumstance. I believe that it’s the individual responsibility to choose their own destiny and not

Abortion is murder and morally wrong. Abortion is a woman’s choice, not anybody else’s. These are the two most prominent arguments made when the topic of abortion is brought up. The debate over abortion has been going on for decades, and still, has years of debate to come. Although pro-life supporters make good points in the fact that abortion is against many religious beliefs and is morally wrong, I believe abortion should remain legalized because it should always be a woman’s choice and not everybody has the same belief system as others may have.

The issue with laws against abortion is that they are based on the individual's morality and religion, but laws are not meant to appease one’s conscious, they are meant to uphold the rights of man. Every woman and man under the United States Constitution is granted civil liberties and when President Trump delivered his Executive order, it breached people’s civil liberties by denying them access to healthcare. Whether abortion is morally correct, is up for debate, but a government should not be able to ban or defund such means for a woman to uphold her own civil liberties. When any President reinstates the “Mexico City Policy,” he forces health providers to fire staff, reduce their services, or close their entire clinics. Prohibiting abortion

Abortion is a very sensitive topic that is also a very controversial topic as well. A topic where people are torn between whether it is right to have an abortion or not. It has been a major issue for hundreds of years. Even so, all fifty states have made legal to have an abortion, and it should be up to the woman whether or not they want to have the abortion or not. At one time not all states made abortion legal. It took a Supreme Court case to decide that. I personally do not see anything wrong with someone having an abortion, it is a personal choice. I really do not understand why so many people are so against about abortion. Giving the right to women to choice to have an abortion is part of their civil rights that we fought so hard for. If we start having these sorts of basic civil rights taken away, we will be going down on a dangerous path. Who is to say something else will be taken away? I honestly do not think having an abortion is such a big problem. Many people against abortion believe that it is murder. They believe it is the act of taking

I am an Evansville native writing on behalf of women in the state of Indiana who will be disproportionately affected by State Representative Curt Nisly’s proposed “Protection at Conception” bill which he intends to bring to the January 2017 General Assembly. I want to acknowledge that I have respect for those who identify as pro-life, as someone who formerly fought to protect the unborn from abortion, it is a set of ideals that I am very familiar with. That being said, I am writing to implore you to take a fervent stand against this complete abortion ban that Representative Nisly is hoping will pass in Indiana.

From a freshman point of view, high school is like a huge skyscraper, exciting and beautiful, but also intimidating. To assuage this fear, I decided to take debate class with my older brother – a comfort to me – and the veteran debate teacher. Little did I know I was about to enter a setting in which I was going to interact with someone in authority whose beliefs were vastly different than mine, creating an environment that would challenge and perhaps change my feelings.

Does a women’s right to choose to have an abortion outweigh a baby’s right to be born? The controversy at hand is whether the rights of a women outweigh the rights of a baby, and whether a mother should be given the rights to pursue a procedure like an abortion. To clarify an abortion is a medical procedure that ends a pregnancy in which a doctor uses a vacuum and suction to suck out a fetus from the uterus. The issue is whether the fetus who has the potential to be a rational, productive human being has the unequivocal rights of any other human being and whether he or she should be protected from, in every sense of the word, murder. The argument made by abortionfacts.com a nonprofit Christian pro-life education organization, is that

Health and money are what many people wish for and strive towards, but many people out there face the struggles of even managing one of the two. Abortion has been legal in all states, but despite the fact that it is legal some women who go through the process of abortion receive scorn and disapproval. Abortion started out as a way to take out a fetus that may harm one’s health, but recently abortion has become a hot debate topic. Towards the argument, there are multiple perspectives towards abortion. One perspective believes that abortion should be accepted, another side wants abortion to stop. To a certain extent both sides have a reasonable argument, but there must be a reason for having an abortion. That is why abortion should be accepted.

Have you ever considered legalizing abortion in the country? Do you think it’s a good idea to take an innocent life? Do you think it’s right to take away privileges from an innocent child? Absolutely not! I strongly believe that legalizing abortion will allow individuals to avoid handling responsibilities, and take away innocent lives for no apparent reason.
