Abortion: comparison and contrast


            There are two opposing main controversies within the abortion ethics topic. The first view is against abortion. The other view is rooted upon the belief of being pro-choice, or basically for abortions. .
             These two different views have many differences, but they also have larger similarities in the background. For example, when pro-choice activist support abortions due to unwanted pregnancies, the activists are not rallying behind the idea of sexual incompetence, sometimes pregnancies due to lack of birth control. Rather, they are supporting the idea that women have the right to choose what to do with their own bodies. In order to fully understand these opposing views, justifications and condemnations, on abortion, it can basically be divided into two categories. These two categories are based upon the reasons for which abortions are carried out, and include congenital defects, and economics. Congenital defects, is when deformities within the baby are detected during an early stage of pregnancy. Another reason for abortion, is due to economics, the financial condition. Economics can also include cases such as teen age pregnancies.
             The anti-abortionists have numerous reasons for their beliefs, and many of them are attached to their religion ideals. Religious ideals, range from having an abortion before 120 days after the pregnancy, such as in Islam, to considering it a sin to have an abortion. However, the anti-abortionists' reasons also come from the belief that a human being is born after conception, and that the death of that fetus resembles the murder of an innocent human being. They believe that no one has the right to take decision of another's life, mainly an infant that is dependent on others for survival during the initial of life. In addition, to the fact that abortions kill innocent human beings, anti-abortionists believe that they also damage the mental, as well as physical condition of the mother.
