Abortion is the act of terminating a human pregnancy and it is a cruel crime committed by many women. It is a widespread topic around the world and society is either for it or against it. Unexpected situations can happen to everyone, but that does not make it right to abort a child. A rape victim might not intend on having a baby they were not planning due to the violent act they cannot control, but abortion is wrong because it is murder, adoption is always an alternative, and it is unfair the unborn child cannot speak up for him/herself. Abortion is indeed considered murder because it is a willful act against killing an unborn child. Yes, abortion may be legally approved by the government, but it is unethical for another human,such as
Abortion is the deliberate termination of a woman’s pregnancy before they deliver birth, in which it results the death of the fetus. Abortion has been one of the most heated debates in America for years. There are two sides of abortion, those who believe that it is a woman's constitutional right to decide, and others such as myself, who believe that abortion is unethical, and it is murder when destroying a child’s life.
The thought of abortion is an execution that shouldn’t be done. The fact that it is strictly illegal to kill in the United States means killing any human should be illegal. The definition of killing is any act of causing death, especially deliberately. “Abortion has never been about choice; It's about escaping the consequences of your choices by taking away the choices of the most innocent among us”. So what confuses me is that abortion is legal when it's basically killing
The name abortion sets an eerie feeling in the pit of one’s stomach. The thought of killing an innocent being should be considered illegal. No one should be given the right to kill an innocent child for their own selfish desires. Whether the child is a mistake, made from an inconvenience, or not having the financial capacity of raising another is no reason to abort. Abortion should be illegal because taking an innocent life is considered murder; it is not about choice, but the value of life itself and it goes against a person’s human rights.
Abortion is the ending of a human pregnancy. Most women choose to have an abortion because they think that they are not ready to be a mother. They think the best way to get rid of their baby is the best way to get rid of their unborn child, but there are always other choices. Just because something is legal, it doesn't make it right to do. Abortion should be illegal, because: it is the same as killing someone, it's better to give a baby up for adoption instead of taking his/her life, the baby is innocent and is not responsible for others actions, and due to the fact that most females regret having an abortion and require psychological help afterwards.
Abortion is referred as the termination of a pregnancy or of a fetus that is incapable of survival (Dictionary.com). Abortion is morally wrong and illegal because the fetus is a person. It is the same thing as murder. The reasons people have abortions are they are not ready to handle the responsibility of another human being, the fetus may have a birth defect, mother’s heath is an issue, rape, or simply because they don’t want any more children (Abortioninfo). The majority of people that have abortions are teenagers. Abortion is flat out wrong and should be banned. Being that abortion is immoral no matter the circumstances, justifies the need for a law to make it illegal.
Conclusion: A pregnant woman carries a living human in her womb regardless of the stage of pregnancy; therefore an abortion would be murder.
Abortion has always been a controversial topic in the United States for decades. Abortion is like taking the life of someone without their permission so it is technically “murder”. There is no such thing as an unwanted child, millions of families in the United States are always willing to adopt. On the other hand, there are circumstances where a woman can barely care and sustain herself so chances are that she will not be able to take care of her child. Or when a rape occurs, having an abortion is not as bad as when a woman has sex without protection and knows she has the chance to get pregnant.
Murder is the unlawful killing of a human being and murderers face prolonged prison sentences or in extreme cases, the death penalty (Brown 3). So, why is abortion legal, and not considered murder if mothers are ending the life of their unborn children? Human life begins at conception when a mother’s egg becomes fertilized by a
Abortion is the ending of pregnancy by removing a fetus or embryo from the womb before it can survive on its own. An abortion can also be induced which means steps are taken purposely to end the pregnancy. “Induced” abortions are legal, safe, and usually done by doctors. Almost half of all pregnancies in the United States are unplanned, which means about $1.3 million in 1996 were aborted. A woman has the ‘right’ to choose if her child lives or dies, but what about the baby? Doesn’t the baby get a say? How would a person feel if someone took away their ability to live? Women are a mother as soon as they become pregnant, how could a mother tell her child they are unwanted and should be killed? Some people think it’s all right to abort children,
Abortion means to end the life of an unborn child. Abortion is killing or murdering a human-being who does not hold the capability to make decisions for himself. It is a federal crime to kill a bald eagle egg but we are allowed to kill a human fetus. Why would the world allow such a hurtful process? It is sickening to think that a baby as small as an apple seed is being killed because they are not wanted. When people get pregnant and they don’t want to keep the baby there are other options to choose than abortion.
For many people who are pro-life, their argument is that having an abortion is murder. Some people claim that if we don't know whether the fetus has reached a stage where it has the right to life, we should assume that it does, as to avoid damaging the fetus. In reality, a fetus is considered to be a conscious being between the 24th and 28th week of gestation. In addition, evidence indicates that fetuses do not feel pain until after the start of the third trimester, and virtually no abortions occur during that time. As shown on the chart and graph to the right, the majority of abortions take place during the first 9 weeks of pregnancy, and merely 1.5% occur after 21 weeks.
“There are nearly 1.2 million abortions performed in the United States each year” (Operation Rescue, 2014). That was 1.2 million innocent lives that were ended before they even had a chance to begin. Abortion has been legal for decades now, and it is time to put a stop to all the murdering of unborn children. This senseless killing of an unborn child needs to be recognized for what it truly is, and that is legalized murder. Abortions should be made illegal in the United States because it is taking the life of an innocent person, there are other options out there and lastly abortions are not only harming the unborn child but also cause harm to the mother.
There is not really a clear verdict when it comes to abortion being right or wrong. Looking at abortion as being a dynamic subject depending on the situation; is a better approach. In the case of it being a rape, I feel the woman has full rights over her own body. She may not want to experience the agonizing, even traumatizing ordeal that is giving birth. I understand that some consider it to be murder.
Is abortion a criminal act or not, it depends entirely on the laws of each country regulations, countries have national prohibition and permission. However, it is permissible to be understood that abortion must be done at the medical facility and have a valid state license, rather than have an abortion right in anywhere and by any way.
