Abortion is the intentional ending of a pregnancy before birth, and is morally wrong because it is the murder of a separate and innocent life through cruel and inhumane circumstances. There are many reasons for abortion but none of them is a viable excuse to kill a living being which God loves and has created. There are many different ways in which an abortion may be performed including suction, partial birth, and saline injection. None of these can be considered humane, acceptable or morally right because the child is indeed a living being, can feel pain, and has the right to live. The main arguments for pro-choice are that the women should have the right to choose, that a fetus is not a real human, abortion does not cause harm, and that every child should be a wanted child. This viewpoint believes that women should have the choice to have an abortion because it is her body in question, and that a fetus is a mere extension of her body cells. They validate their opinions that it is not a real life because a fetus cannot reason or feel pain. The other main point is that they should not bring children into this world that are not wanted by their natural parents. These appear to be very valid points, but with proper knowledge of the conditions surrounding abortion and a developing baby, it is evident that abortion is morally wrong.
