Abortion and euthenasia

Summary of the question as to whether RU-486 should be legalized in the United States

In this article, NARAL (National Abortion and Reproduction Rights Action League) argues that the drug will not only “expand women’s choices” but will also “make it more difficult to target abortion clinics for violence and harassment”. They assert our concerns should be with the woman’s rights by providing with a relatively safe and effective and less intrusive, more hygienic, and natural method of terminating an unwanted pregnancy that was available to her before only by surgery. Should the law deny women a drug that will give them a greater “freedom” over their bodies over reasons that are fueled by religious objections? The article also argues that according to statistics from countries that have legalized this pill many years ago, the drug’s availability will not increase the number of women having abortions, but will possibly cause them to resort to other more risky methods. NARAL even debates that Mifepristone (the active ingredient in the pill) could offer health benefits and improve other medical conditions. In William F. Jasper’s argument he says that it is not right to ignore the rights of the unborn child. He sta


This pill should NOT be legalized. RU486 is nothing but a pill used to murder your unborn child. Abortion of any sort is wrong, but facilitating it is worse. One of the arguments for the abortion pill and abortion in general, is that it gives “choices” to women, but in doing so, it takes the right to live away from the child and no mortal should have the right to take life from anyone else and our modern society needs to learn this. The second that the sperm meets with the egg, then that is an unborn child with the same rights that other people have. What this pill would do is encourage abortions and give people the wrong idea about abortion. The way this pill kills the child is by starving it to death and then can be expelled in one’s own bathroom. Even taking out the moral reprehensible act of killing a child, the pill is still not one that should be taken lightly. We also have to realize the risks coming from this pill. It has major side effects when taken. It’s also seen as a simple procedure but in reality it is not. It only carries a success rate of 64-85%. On the women who use it, it also has a psychological, moral, and spiritual toll. This world has indeed become, in the words of Pope John Paul II “a culture of death” often, I wonder where our reverence for life has gone, because it is obvious by these values held by humans now, that they have been lost

Summary of The question as to whether hospitals have the right to withhold treatment.

tes that in the average 8 - 23% of cases in which RU-486 fails to terminate the child if the mother then fails to surgically terminate the child, then the possibility exists that she may give birth to a child who may have been harmed by the drugs and exhibits serious birth defects. When thought of from the women’s point of view, he argues, the pill takes a psychological toll on them. According to Jasper, the public seems to ignore the effect this drug will have on “the most innocent and helpless members of our society.”
