Abortion - Report
Abstract
Abortion, the ending of pregnancy, has been a very controversial topic for decades. Is abortion moral or immoral? People all over the world have different opinions. There are different ways that abortion can be performed: surgically or medicinally. There are no specifications on who will have an abortion. Women who have abortions come from all racial, ethnic, socioeconomic, and religious backgrounds. These women, in most cases, suffer from side effects before or after abortion physically, mentally, socially, and psychologically.
Introduction
Although today there are many trial marriages, there is no such thing as a trial child.’(Gail Sheehy). For many couples, becoming pregnant is well-received good news, but for some pregnancy can be unwelcome and very bad news. Being a bad news, pregnancy can be ended by aborting the fetus in different stages.
Background
For decades, abortion has been considered as illegal and immoral act, but as time passes, a lot has changed to make this act partially acceptable and legal in some cases according to the circumstances.
While modern technology is quite new in historical terms, the practice of abortion and menstrual "regulation" is ancient. Traditional methods have been handed down for hundreds of generations and herbal and other methods have roots in the distant past. It should be noted that many ancient and medieval methods and preparations are extremely risky and many are not at all effective, so experimentation is quite unwise. We know abortion was practiced in biblical times from the passage in Numbers where alleged infidelity is tested by giving an abortifacient potion to an accused pregnant woman. The "bitter water" used to "bring on the curse" may have been quinine or several of other herbal and natural concoctions that are considered emmagogues, or drugs that bring on menstruation. Such herbs and other concoctions are in reality often implantation inhibitors or abortifacients. According to the biblical
