Conservative View on Abortion

Written Task 1: Conservative View on Abortion

Abortion is the deliberate killing of the weakest and most defenseless among us. Unfortunately, for the last few decades, the practice has been recognized as a fundamental human right by the highest court of the land. American culture has become increasingly accepting of traditional values and principles being compromised. Political correctness now replaces ethics, self-reliance is replaced by dependency, and crudeness now takes the place of knowledgeability. Today’s culture is corrupt and morally depraved, and there is no other topic that demonstrates this better than abortion.

Many liberals support the argument that a woman has a right to choose what she does with her body, even if that means killing her unborn child. It also contradicts their standpoint, because a woman also has the choice of whether or not to become pregnant in the first place. She should accept the consequences of her risky behavior instead of killing an innocent child that cannot speak for itself, for her convenience.

The separation of church and state further alienates America from Christian values that abhor abortion, or killing an innocent being in general. Unlike other social issues that are debated on amongst conservatives and liberals, abortion is undeniably vile. It lessens the value of a person that is in the same position that we all were in at one time. The most innocent and defenseless individuals are victimized. It is not just a personal choice, but also an offense against God and his creation.
