Why Abortion Is Wrong

Did you know that just in the US, more than 1.3 million unborn babies are killed in abortion each year (Teens for Life)? Did you also know that approximately 50 million babies have been killed since abortion was legalized in 1973 (Teens for Life)? Precious, Human Life has been lost. How would it feel if your life would be taken away in just a few minutes? You would have no family, no future, and no life. I believe that Abortion is wrong. Those babies should be given a chance to see the world. Here are some reasons why Abortion is wrong.

The acceptance and practice of abortions has greatly increased in America, with nearly 53 million legal abortions being performed from 1973 to 2011. To put this into perspective, that’s nearly 77 times the number of homicides and nonnegligent manslaughters from 1972 to 2007. ("Sourcebook of Criminal Justice Statistics”). As of abortion rates in 2008, three in ten American women will have an abortion before the age of 45 (“Abortion ProCon.org”). Abortion has especially grown in acceptance among the younger generation, with 75% of women who have abortions being under the age of 30. Another shocking fact about abortion is that 9.3% of women who had abortions in 2011 had already had three or more abortions previously. In fact, a child is killed by an abortion in America every 26 seconds (“Online For Life”). While abortions can be dangerous for the mother, the mortality rate is only about 0.6 out of 100,000, which is about fourteen times smaller than the mortality rate of childbirth. So what do activists have to say about abortion?

Researcher say there’s at least 3,000 a day in the United State, and about 125,000 in the whole world. Twenty-two percent of all pregnancies in the U.S. end in abortion. Nearly half the pregnancies in the U.S. are unintended and four in ten of these are terminated by abortion. One woman dies every seven minutes from an abortion. Women that are between the ages of 20-25 have more abortion then teenagers, which you would think teenager would have more. This is horrible how many abortion happen in the U.S. let alone the world! Those statistics are saying that we could have had 125,000 more amazing children on this earth, one of them could have been the next great thing, but you're never gonna know because you killed you own baby. The only people that should get the choice of abortion

They claim that abortion is the way to prevent medical complications and defects that would take place during pregnancy and childbirth. In the instance of rape, they counter that birth control and morning after pills can insure that you do not become pregnant, preventing the need for an abortion. They argue when teenaged girls are raped and do not have the option of abortion, they tend to have grim prospects for the future. In this case, they dispute that they are likely to drop out of school, give poor care to the infant, and rely heavily on others for help. Terrible life circumstances happen all the time. We cannot change this. What we can do is help how we respond to these circumstances. Two wrongs do not make a right. A life is a life, no matter how it is created.

Thousands of women in the world have abortions. “ Since the 1970’s, abortion has been a very controversial issue throughout the United States. Anti-Abortion and pro choice organizations often express their differences of opinion in lawful demonstrations” (Andryszewski 10).Think of it this way, all of the fetuses are in life or death situations. Their mother is choosing whether or not she wants to keep them or abort them. The children that are getting aborted will never get the chance to live. The children that are aborted will never get a choice.They will never get to go through all of the good, and even the bad, times of life. Life is a blessing, and everyone should get the chance to live their life. Women who just don’t want a child, or even women who have been raped, are wanting abortions all throughout America. Whatever the reason for the abortion, the pregnant woman should not have the choice of taking a life that they created. There are reasons and other options why women should not get abortions. Abortions should be illegal because these women are murdering a child that is unborn, it could be harmful to women, and if not always, then almost always, women have the choice of adoption.

Abortion is one of the most controversial topics and many argue that it's wrong, but I disagree, I am a strong supporter of abortions. An abortion is when a woman deliberately terminates a pregnancy, there are many medical methods used to perform an abortion. The techniques used for abortion have changed drastically over time and many cultures developed their own forms of abortions. Originally abortions were unregulated and many women performed abortions on themselves at home, which were very unsafe and many at home abortions resulted in injury or death. The two main methods of abortion as of right now are surgical and medical abortion, these are much safer than previous methods and rarely inflict any harm onto the woman. The surgical method is performed using a vacuum like device to empty the uterus of its content. The medical abortion can only be used early in a pregnancy and requires a woman to take a prescribed pill for the first seven weeks of her pregnancy.

A lot of pro-abortion people say rape is a situation where the mother should be allowed to have an abortion, because that’s hard and she shouldn’t have to think of that everytime she looks at her baby. Well rape is no reason to have an abortion. Keissling said “I owe my life to pro-life activists” (Geyer, Allison, infohio). She owes her life because if abortion was legal when her mother was pregnant she would’ve probably be dead right now because her mother wouldn’t have wanted to deal with her, but since she didn’t now 26 years later they are together and happy with a good relationship (Geyer, Allison, infohio).  Another way pro-abortion people justify having an abortion is by saying they’re a women and you can’t tell them what to do with their body and their life. Some women say that since the baby is inside of their body it’s apparently a part of their body now and they get to decide the outcome of the baby's life. But this is not true, the baby is a separate from the mother. The baby has its own heartbeat, limbs, and lungs. That is separate from the mother. Every human has ONE heartbeat, ONE set of lungs, ONE brain. The baby is Its own human, they have there own life. Rape and other situations is no reason to give up your

We also have to think about the women or young girls wherehaveibeen raped and don't wanna keep the baby because of the memories that brings back or when they were beingrape. We have to keep in that this world isn't perfect we have a lot of flaws epically when it comes to keeping a family supporting and protecting . In my conclusion i don't think abortion should be

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.

Abortion is one of the most immoral things you can possibly do to another living human being. Bishop Christopher Jones of Elphin says,”Abortion is always morally wrong”(Daily Mail, 2013). “We claim that we must protect the innocent, voiceless, and powerless unborn child in the womb”(Bishop Jones, Daily Mail). Just because someone doesn't want their baby does not give them the right to choose whether or not a life is taken because

I believe that abortion is wrong and it’s a social problem. I think that it is wrong to have an abortion because life begins at conception. Abortion is no different to murder as it is the act of taking a human life. As in California penal code 187 says murder is an unlawful killing of a human being, or a fetus with malice. I think the above definition is an easier and less aggressive way to say that abortion is the murdering of a human being. No civilized society should permit any person to intentionally hurt or take the life of another human without any type of punishment, and abortion should not be different.

In America, abortions are legal. Sacrificing an unborn life in this world should be illegal. They cannot speak for themselves and don’t have a choice to live or die. Abortion should be illegal.

Nine hundred twenty-six thousand, two hundred and forty—what an incredibly huge number. What does it stand for exactly? What if I told you that was how many babies were killed from an abortion in one year? Would it shock you? Would it wake you up to the reality of what is really happening in America? According to abort73.com, that is how many abortions took place here in America in 2014. Is abortion murder? Is abortion wrong? Abortion kills babies because this despicable procedure stops a baby’s beating heart.

According to CDC.gov, about 730,322 legal induced abortions were reported to the CDC from 49 reporting areas in 2011, that’s not considering the other legal abortions that weren’t reported or the abortions that were done “under the hood”. That counts for over 730,322 innocent lives lost due to thoughtlessness, carelessness, and in the worst cases rape and incest but according to The New York Times those cases only count for 1% of the abortion cases reported every year. Since abortion was legalized in 1973, there have been 54,559,615 reported abortion cases. I am Pro-Life, I believe that no matter what, under no circumstances should innocent blood be shed. I understand that in rape victims it’s a more sensitive matter but it’s not the child’s fault that the situation

People in today’s world like to make their own decision, nobody likes to be told what to do or believe in. Today’s generation is so gullible they will believe anything anybody with authority has to say and will side with something or someone without doing any research. Teens today are becoming more and more pro choice because of newspaper reporters and the lies they tell. People see newspapers reporters working for these huge corporations and think that they know everything because they are well informed and their job requires them to do a lot of research. Although this may be true for some newspaper reporters, other newspaper reporters may be telling lies left and right deceiving people. If you were the poor innocent fetus in this situation would you like to die just because your future mother read that abortion is okay in some newspaper report probably written by some reporter that has never experienced this situation, but sure has a lot to say not demonstrating both the pros and cons sides of this situation. Abortions are truly wrong and humans should never make the decision of taking a poor innocent fetus life for no reason. Every human being have the same morals and know that murder is wrong. Most newspaper reporters support abortions, therefore newspaper reporters are the one’s to blame for influencing today’s generation to take part in this epidemic that is morally wrong and become pro choice.
