The Pros And Cons Of Abortion

In this essay, the author

• Explains that there is a clear divide amongst individuals on where they stand on abortion. pro-choice tends to get misinterpreted as "pro-abortion."
• Argues that abortion is in direct defiance of the commonly accepted idea of sanctity of human life.
• Explains that abortion is akin to murder as it is the act of taking human life.
• Opines that abortion is in direct defiance of the idea of sanctity of human life.
• Explains that the argument follows the form of hypothetical syllogism (a is b. b is c) and is valid.
• Analyzes carol everett's article about pregnancy crisis centers deceiving women to get abortions by not giving them any other options.
• Analyzes the common pro-choice arguments against abortions, such as the fact that a fetus cannot exist independent of the mother, and that it is attached by placenta and umbilical cord.
• Explains that for a fetus to be its own entity, it must exist outside of the mother’s womb.
• Explains that the argument follows the form of modus tollens, denying the consequent (if a then b, not b) and is valid.
• Opines that if women seek abortions out in secrecy, they will sacrifice sanitary conditions and professional care.
• Opines that if abortion is illegal, many women risk their lives for an illegitimate one.
• Explains that pro-life people fight for the safety of the unborn fetus, but they should also make sure that the woman is safe. many women who receive abortions in later pregnancies do so because of a catastrophic fetal anomaly or genetic disorder.
• Analyzes the slippery slope fallacy of abortions carried out to the third trimester, while others are done very early in the pregnancy. teenagers who become mothers have grim prospects for the future.
• Analyzes how the final argument for pro-choice will be in cases of rape or incest. the strong inductive argument shows that women who become pregnant are more likely to neglect their child due to the fact that they are constant reminders of her experience.
• Argues that the best solution is to make abortions available to people who choose to have them, but to educate the women on other alternatives such as adoption or to reduce the risk of unwanted pregnancies.
