According to the law in the U.K “Two doctors must agree that termination of the pregnancy is necessary”. There are a few circumstances that will allow a termination at any time for example, if giving birth would be a risk to the life of the mother or risk that the child were born with physical or mental abnormalities, amongst other reasons.

The bible teaches us that abortion is wrong although it never actually says that it does give a very distinct impressio

Christians should also pray for the babies killed through abortion, as they believe that a baby is formed at the moment of conception, therefore when an abortion is performed, a murder is committed and a life is lost. Another angle to look at would be abortion itself and how to put a stop to it. Leaflets, adverts, etc could do this but it is not always seen as very effective so another option might be to hold a peaceful protest, either outside houses of parliament or by the actual abortion clinics. This way you would get the community involved and get people thinking. One mistake often made when trying to get the idea of abortion being wrong across is pressuring or abusing the woman, some people might think that if they bully the woman into thinking that abortion is murder and they have no right to do it then that is justified but this is wrong becau
