Argumentative Essay On Pro Life

When it comes to abortion, everyone has a slightly different view. Whether one believes that no one, or everyone, should be allowed to get an abortion, the same question comes into play: Is abortion ethical? In addition, when does a human life actually start? Without concrete facts, we can only do so much with those questions, which is why this is such a controversial topic. We need to consider all the facts and information available. For example, whether or not a fetus feels pain, how old the fetus is, and what condition the pregnant woman is in. The main argument comes down to pro-life versus pro-choice. After doing extensive research, I have come to agree with the side of pro-choice, meaning that

The fetus has a valuable future, just as we consider children, the retarded or mentally ill to have valuable futures, thus killing a fetus is not morally permissible. Another pro-choice argument is that the fetus has no desire to live and consequently there is no wrongness in killing. Marquis criticizes this viewpoint, as society believes it is morally wrong to kill those who have no desire to live, and those who are unconscious or suicidal (Gedge & Waluchow, 2012, p220).

Otto von Bismarck once said, “Laws are like sausages, it is better not to see them being made.” The arduous process that a bill undergoes in order to become a law may seem grueling and pointless; however, the processes high caliber of difficulty allows for the extreme prestige and exclusivity of bills that are passed. Because the process is so exhausting, and filibusters, subsequently requiring a super-majority vote to pass a bill, have always been such a threat in Congress, historically, bills that attempt to reform sensitive issues have not fared well in the legislative branch. However, when Congress does pass controversial laws, it then also faces the task of effectively enforcing them. But, when the process is carried out to

All lives matter even the ones that are waiting to begin. Abortion is “the intentional termination of a pregnancy in the early stages”. Many people have different views on abortion. some believe that the mother can choose, and others believe that it is not any person’s choice about the life of the child. For example pro-choice is to be willing to let the mother’s decide what they want to do about the child that is growing inside them because it is their body. On the other hand pro-life is to be against letting mothers take the lives of their unborn children. Abortion has many effects on the human body, because it is not a natural sequence taking place within the mothers body. There are many other options than abortion, and abortion could be eradicated in this generation if women and families are given proper support.

A common argument between pro-life and pro-choice believers is abortion considered murder. According to editor Michelle Ye Hee Lee, The Washington Post, “Setting the record straight on measuring fetal age and the twenty-week abortion.” A fetus is considered viable

There has been much controversy regarding the social, ethical, and medical predicament that abortion provokes. Abortion is the procedure of ending a pregnancy with the early removal of a fetus. There is no right or wrong when it comes to abortion; values contribute a great amount to an individual’s opinion. This process has led to numerous debates among individuals who believe that it is up to a woman to decide what to do with her body and the individuals who hold that women do not have the right to take away a life. Although it may seem as if the beliefs of pro-life and pro-choice advocates are on opposite sides of a spectrum, the two sides can come to an agreement about how to at least lessen the number of abortions occurring.

In 1973, there was an abortion case in the Supreme Court called Roe vs. Wade. The case made abortion legal. Since that day, abortion has become one of the most highly debated topics in our nation. A big question about abortion is if it is murder. Many people say that it isn’t murder because you are killing the fetus, the unborn offspring of a mother, but even when a baby is in its mother’s womb, it has a breath. According to the American Heritage High School dictionary, murder is the act of putting an end to, or destroying a life, which is exactly what abortion is. Although being a parent is very hard, abortion is murder, mentally stressful, and it disregards the gift of life.

The process of intentionally ending a pregnancy is called an abortion. This highly controversial topic has sparked a fierce on-going debate throughout the United States politics do to people’s scientific, ethical, and social beliefs. The issue with discussing abortion is that both viewpoints American citizens have, contain indirect oppositions. Those in favor of abortion hold beliefs of freedom whereas those against it stand by their moral and religious beliefs. Even though both sides of abortion have tremendously diverse perspectives, it is hard to deny that both stances hold reasonable and convincing explanations to support their position. With that being said, there are two sides in the debate of abortion: pro-life and pro-choice. To be against abortion means to be pro-life. Those who are pro-life believe that the fetus is biologically a human therefore it is murder, the fetus feels pain, it is against religious beliefs, adoption is available, and contraceptives are accessible therefore actions come with consequences.

Abortion is killing a virtuous, defenseless baby. The performance of abortion was legalized in 1973. Since then, 56 million babies have been lost. That is 155 lives an hour, or one baby every 24 seconds. By the time you finish reading this paper, 4 to 5 more precious babies will have passed away. How is a baby supposed to defend itself when it relies on the mother to keep him protected?

Firstly, abortion kills the innocent lives of babies. In America, about 1.21 million abortions occur a year (National center of health). According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 3,952,841 babies are born a year. The life of every unborn baby is in jeopardy, he or she either gets the opportunity to live or he or she’s life ends. “There is no ethical defense for killing someone who is innocent, no matter how great the inconvenience to another person may be”. (Wayne Wilkins) People believe that aborting a baby won’t harm or cause pain to the unborn fetus; it’s the destruction of a conception. The power to end one’s life should be in no one’s hands.

The argument is that having the choice to take a life, weather it’s two weeks or 40 weeks, it is inhuman and murderous. For example, the Created Equal group stated that, “The claim that preborn children are part of women's bodies flies in the face of modern science. Preborn children are dependent upon their mothers, but they are not part of them. They have their own blood type, bone structure, and genetic code. In fact, the notion that the preborn is part of the mother would result in inane conclusions—such as the mother having four arms, four legs, and, in the case of a preborn boy, even male genitalia. We also know there are limits to 'choice.' The autonomy of any one person does not permit her to infringe on the rights of, or endanger, another. For example, the right of a man to do what he wants with his body does not permit him to rape women. And a woman’s right to do what she wants with her hands ends when she uses them to drown her children. Choice, then, is not absolute. Indeed, some choices are wrong: rape, murder, abuse, etc. Since we would not allow a mother to kill her born children by choice, we must not permit her to kill her preborn children for the same reason." I agree that abortion has been abused by women who are not ready for a child because I think that once a woman decides to have sex she is taking that risk of having a child whether she is ready or not. However, if you are one of the 25,000 girls that becomes pregnant through rape or

Abortion is a concept that has been widely debated for years according to “Roe V. Wade' Turns 40, But Abortion Debate Is Even Older’’, it is a argument that has been going on since the 1950’s , but the big question is will the debate of whether abortion is pro choice or murder ever truly be over ?

" The issue that I've been really hovering around lately is that of women's issues, If I would have to choose a specific issue, I've been pretty conscious recently of the pro life debate, as a women I feel like I should be the one deciding what to do with my own body, rather than congress."

Abortion isn’t necessary to save a woman’s life. “As experienced practitioners and researchers in obstetrics and gynaecology, we affirm that direct abortion – the purposeful destruction of the unborn child – is not medically necessary to save the life of a woman.”( Doctors: Abortion Not Necessary to Save Mothers’ Lives) This fact states that the baby doesn't have to be killed for medical reasons as some people state is necessary. This is one reason why abortion should not be allowed. Another reason why abortion should not be allowed is because abortion is the same as murdering. “Abortion is legal at all stages of pregnancy, from conception until the unborn baby's body is completely born, at which moment the child may no longer be legally killed.”(About the Unborn Child) In the quote it implies that they are killed and killing a person is the same as murdering them. Murdering can land a person in jail. One last reason why abortion is the same as murdering a person is because abortion is cruel to the baby. Abortion processes either dismember or extract the fetus or certain parts of the fetus but altogether the end result is the fetus is dead.(About Abortion) As it is said in some way the fetus is killed but in most processes the fetus is first dismembered while it is still alive. These are a few examples of innocent lives being killed but some may are are they really

Abortion has always been an incredibly controversial topic. It has been one of the most widely discussed issues in the American culture for decades. Abortion is a discussion of human interaction, in which emotions, ethics, and law all come together. In many cases, people on both sides of the argument have valid points and take moral positions. A pro-choice position would assert that the decision to terminate a pregnancy lies the mother and that the government has no right to interfere or step in and make that decision. On the other hand, the position of pro-life advocates argue that life begins at the moment of conception. They believe that because the embryo or fetus is a human life and that one has no moral right to abort it. This theory argues that this human has no power or say in the matter and is rendered helpless from advocating for itself. Although abortion is a morally and emotionally charged issues, it is ultimately protected under the 14th amendment. The most common reasons for abortion include but are not limited to, teen pregnancy, rape, and health issues.
