Pregnancy Fetus Embryo Survive Outside The Uterus Miscarriage Philippine Constitution
Pregnancy Fetus Embryo Survive Outside The Uterus Miscarriage Philippine Constitution
B. DISCUSSION:
Non- Necessity:
Abortion is absolutely not a "necessity." Life should be protected.
In today's day and age, condoms and birth control aren't new inventions that
people have never heard of. People should be responsible with sex, also
known as, guess what, reproduction... Sex will always have the risk of
conceiving a baby, and people who engage in sex should always be aware of
that risk. See life as a beautiful gift, and if you cannot accept that gift, give
him/her to someone who will love and cherish it. Adoption should always be
an option, stopping a human heartbeat should not.
Abortion infringes on the right of THE BABY TO LIVE!
Pro-abortion activists will tell you that the women should have the right to
terminate he pregnancy but that is a load of crap! The baby should have the
right to live a happy life, not be killed before it even starts. Liberals always
talk about a "fair chance." Aborting a baby directly contradicts that!!! If the
mom really cannot handle a baby, ADOPTION is always an option!
Even a child must live!!
Because, every living creature is supposed to live, even the mother of the
child is living because she was not decided to be aborted by her parents or a
guardian thats why every people must live without even killed. Because the
child is the future of our country, thats why we must let them be!!!!!
benefits
don't
always
outweigh
the
costs.
But what are the costs? Well, the main cost is that the fetus dies, through no
choice of it's own. And the choice then becomes this: you either complicate
the life of a mother who may have only 60 years more to live, or you end the
life of a human that has their entire life to live. Using only this logic, I don't
see how abortion could ever be justified, unless you strongly value the life of
the
mother
over
that
of
the
baby.
I find it interesting that people often speak about older people sacrificing for
the young, perhaps since the young have longer to live (the idea of a parent
jumping in front of a bullet heading for their child). But if that belief is
commonplace, why don't I ever hear a parallel argument that one should
sacrifice for the life of the fetus? You'd think that the latter would be an even
stronger argument than the former, since a fetus will have more time to live
than
a
child
will.
Other proponents of abortion will tell you that a mother has a right to have
an abortion since it's her own body. I rarely hear people discuss just how
weak
this
argument
is.
It's
quite
weak.
The fetus is in the mother's body simply because that's where the birth
process dictates that it be. If abortion is wrong, should a mother have the
right to have an abortion simply because the wrongdoing would occur in her
own
body?
Well, if you believe crime is wrong, is it OK for someone to commit murder in
their own car or home simply because they own that car or home? Of course
it's not OK. Is it OK for someone to inject illegal drugs simply because they
are
injecting
it
into
their
own
body?
Of
course
not.
If unplanned pregnancies weren't sometimes avoidable, perhaps abortion
would be justified. Unplanned pregnancies are not unavoidable. Yes,
accidents do happen, and perhaps exceptions could be considered in those
circumstances, but an adult is an adult. It shouldn't be difficult to prevent
unplanned pregnancies with birth control. However, I agree that many
people may have limitations that make it more difficult for them to use birth
control.
And what about the all-important question: is the fetus a person? Well, I
think the best answer is this: yes it is. It is a human. It is no longer a sperm
or egg...it's a developing human being. Why should it matter whether the
human being is in the womb or whether the human being has left the womb?
After all, the only thing separating the fetus from being a newborn is time.
Time is the only thing separating the fetus from developing into an adult.
That's it! There are no significant structural changes that need to occur to
change the fetus into a baby. Nothing. Just time. The human being has
already
been
created.
If you believe that humans shouldn't be killed, I really don't see how abortion
could be logically justified, since time is the only barrier between a fetus and
a
baby.
I'm not suggesting that a woman that has an abortion is likely to be evil.
That's hardly the case. Myself, I was undecided on this topic until recently.
It's
a
complex
topic
in
the
following
sense:
I think that a significant problem is one of perception. People don't perceive
a fetus as a baby, a human, so they have less difficulty aborting it. What's
out
of
sight
is
often
out
of
mind.
Look at gamblers. It's easier to give away money in the form of poker chips,
right? And why is that? Because it doesn't look like money. Do you think
people would throw away as much money if the poker chips were actual
bills?
No,
they
wouldn't.
And when people have abortions, the idea of the fetus as a human being is
often out of sight and hence out of mind. I understand why people have that
perception, but perception isn't always accurate.
CONCLUSION:
People will say it is murder. Others will object and say it is just a fetus.
Millions of babies die without even being born because of abortion. Abortion
destroys the lives of helpless, innocent children and is legal in many
countries. People these days take advantage of abortion and chose to abuse
it and use it as a birth control. Abortion is a war against the unborn and
should be illegal everywhere unless a life threatening matter occurs.
Until we all accept that abortion kills an innocent human being...
Until
mothers
are
held
responsible
for
their
actions...
Until
it
becomes
illegal
to
kill
an
unborn
child...
Until then, millions of innocent lives will continue to be snuffed out, while
people
continue
choosing
the
easy
way
out.
Doesn't everyone deserve the right to live?
