Abortion Essay, Research Paper

Sara is driving down 7th avenue in her

red pickup truck, in a hurry and traveling well over the speed limit. Becky,

who is 3 months pregnant, is waiting to cross the street on the corner

of 7th avenue and Bell. The street light changes and Becky is signaled

by the crosswalk sign to proceed across the street. Sara is putting in

a new CD and not paying attention to the fact that she has a red light,

without enough time to stop Sara runs the red light and hits Becky who

has just started to cross the street. Now Becky is rushed to the hospital,

she is hurt but will live but her baby dies. Should Sara be charged with

the death of the unborn baby? On the other hand, Jessica, who is a 16-year-old

girl, decides to sleep with an 18-year-old boy. She gets pregnant and has

an abortion because she is not ready to be a mother. Should Jessica be

charged with the death of an unborn baby? The answer to both of the questions

is, yes. Abortion is wrong, cruel and most of all, it goes against the

word of GOD.

When a woman decides to have sex she is

taking the chance of getting pregnant, even if she uses protection. If

she doesn’t want to get pregnant she shouldn’t have sex, and she should

be responsible enough to suffer the consequences. For example, Carrie is

very promiscuous and finds out that she is pregnant, so she goes and has

an abortion. Next time Carrie finds out that she has HIV, well she can’t

pay someone to get rid of her problem so she has to deal with it. Why shouldn’t

she have to deal with the fact of being pregnant? There are many other

options to killing an innocent human: adoption or raising the child with

the help of parents. However, some girls are forced to have an abortion.

No matter the reason someone has for an

abortion, it is still cruel. Some women are forced to have an abortion

either by their parents or their spouse. This circumstance is very hard

to argue because the woman who is pregnant is not making the choice and

should not be held accountable for it. And that is the only reason anyone

might consider having an abortion.

Look at it like this, Jeff and Bonnie are

building a house, what’s the first thing they do? They design the house,

creating it the way they want. The next thing they do is locating a place

to build. Then they lay the foundation and begin to build. The building

process takes anywhere from 3 months to a year, depending on where you

live. When the house is completely finished is when you begin to use it.

You move in, decorate it the way you want and make many memories there.

It’s the same way with babies, God designs the baby the way He wants, and

then He decides on whom the baby will live with. He locates a place that

is safe and warm for the baby to begin its foundation. This is conception,

after that the baby begins to grow (build) into the design God has created

and is not completely finished until birth. That is when the baby’s mother

starts to dress it and decorate it and start memories with it.

Abortion is wrong, cruel and most of all

goes against the word of GOD. God brought life into this world and He decides

on when life is over. A woman does not get pregnant on accident, God had

a specific plan for that child and mother and when a woman kills that unborn

child, not only is she breaking the Ten Commandments but she is breaking

Gods heart.
