Contemporary Moral Issues - Abortion

Abortion has been one of the most hotly debated subjects of this past decade, with the sentiment conflicting between the groups labelled as “pro-choice” and “pro-life”, as if an imaginary line has been drawn in the sand creating an identifiable good or bad person based on the feelings they have towards the status of an unborn child. The vehement protesters for both sides have gone on to create public debate through many different means; some benign, some not. Lines become somewhat blurred when the situation turns them into a principal player in the decision about what is correct, especially if you are the one who is shaking a doctor’s hand after hearing the word, “congratulations”.
