by the removal or expulsion from the uterus of a fetus prior to viability. In other words, it is when a mother decides she doesn’t want to go through with her pregnancy. Abortion in today’s society has become very political. You are either pro-choice, pro-life, and there doesn’t seem to be a happy medium.

Nor government or religious institution should have a legal say in the decision of when, where, and why the individual is seeking the procedure. Opponents (pro-life) stipulate that life begins at conception and abortion is the immoral killing of a human being. It’s a difficult line to walk. I am pro-choice; however, I am against it being used as a

religious beliefs I have always thought that abortion was the wrong choice because that is what I was taught through the religion I follow. The other side of this topic is the people who are pro- choice, which I always saw as wrong. With this being the topic of this paper I knew exactly who I was going to “take to lunch” and that is my best friend who I had just assumed had the same views as I did until we were faced with it in a real life situation.

controversy in our world and I love seeing the statistics and facts that come with it. There is not a certain age group that abortion applies to because it can potentially affect anyone.

controversies of all time. The reason for this surrounds the idea of whether the induced expulsion of the fetus is murder or rather in the interest of the mother. Pro-life people argue that all life in the instant of its conception is innocent and deserves a chance at life. God chooses its time of life and death, not the mother.
