Abortion—The Wrong Choice The abortion debate is raging in America. The opposing sides in the debate each strongly believe they are right. The pro-choice supporters see a woman's right to choose as central to the debate. The life of the baby is the most important concern of the pro-life advocates. Very little middle ground exists on the issue of abortion. It seems that as long as contraceptives are not completely reliable and safe, abortion will remain an issue. This highly sensitive topic will undoubtedly be hotly contested for a long time to come Abortion should be illegal except in instances when the mother's life is endangered by the pregnancy. Abortion is murder. The embryo is a person from the moment of conception. According to Shettles, "Scientists identify the first moment of human life as that instant when a sperm cell unites with an ovum or egg cell" (18). Most pro-choice supporters do not believe the fetus is a person until the first or second trimester.
