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.
