Should
Abortion be banned?
Everyone has their opinion on abortion and in
saying this, there is always two sides to an argument, but in this case
Abortion should be banned. This blog however is going to be based on my
Argument as to why Abortion should be banned.
In saying that, abortion is a common topic,
where people have may somehow forgotten how important the topic really is.
Excuses such as:
Who
cares what the father thinks? Who cares what God thinks? Who cares what the
baby thinks? I’m going to do what I want to with my own body.
Abortion is not Okay, no matter the situation,
however when it comes to rape and abuse, that however is a whole different
topic, that I am not going to dig into. Justifying it with a lame excuse such
as: It was a mistake does not make it
Okay.
Abortion is murder:
People may say that, the mother has the choice whether to
get her baby aborted, but does the baby get a choice? The baby did not have a
choice from the very start, when the mother and supposed father, made the
decision of not using protection, leading on to an unplanned pregnancy, which
may also lead on to abortion.
It is not okay for a mother to take the life of her unborn
child, regardless of its body not being fully formed. The fact that this child
has committed no crime, but is going to pay for the consequences of two
irresponsible adults is immoral. British medical journal say, that by hurting
a new born with a pin, s/he would scream and cry, that’s exactly what happens
when you do the same thing to a fetus.
Research
done by Dr. Phillip G. Ney, showed the feelings of guilt, depression and
anxiety after abortion. Not only this but the physical damages it can do to a
women’s body. It’s possible for a baby to survive an abortion, but the results
are heart-rending, such as the baby being born with missing body parts. Sadly
over 50% of babies whom survive abortion die at 4.
Ban Abortion
Taking the easy way out, just because you cannot
deal with something is Ridiculous really. To simply think of getting an
abortion to relieve you from all the pain, drama and hardships is wrong and
uncalled for. What people, I mean women do not realise is that, by going
through an abortion it is only the beginning of the many problems a women is
about to face.
Taking abortion in to consideration is not that
simple, the fact that women end up pregnant and decide to abort a child easily,
all because she is in no means, able or is ready for a child is not a good
enough reason. Options such as adopting
is available. Instead of killing an unborn child, why not give it to people who
are willing to offer this child a better way of life.
The fact that abortion can also lead to other
complications such as higher risk of breast
cancer is somewhat unbelievable right. It just
doesn’t get better but worst. Everyone knows or should know the consequences of
sex, but still people make the mistake of not using protection, which leads on
to unplanned pregnancy.
Christianity’s view on abortion
Conception is where the life of a human being starts, from a
Christians view. So you can understand how Christian’s feel about abortion, NO
to abortion whatsoever.
Christians, as well as a few other religions around the
globe are against abortion. There is no indication of the word abortion in the
bible, but there are bible scriptures which clearly state that by committing to
such a crime, is basically murder.
Can you believe that even atheist are against abortion,
although they do not believe in God, yet they share a few beliefs as
Christians?
Christians firmly believe, that the child should be put up
for adoption, if the parents are unable to raise this child up, instead of
going through abortion.

Very interesting piece here, very controversial topic! Definitely see the points you are making but, personally, i feel that the option for abortion should be there for women, depending on the situation. The way i see it is that it all boils down to the raising of the child, if the mother is not in a position to care for a new child, pay the medical bills etc. then an abortion may be beneficial for all parties. Bare in mind my stance on the issue is not very strong and could swing either way! Awesome stuff.
