I. Introduction
A. Attention Getter: (Abortion; a new generation’s way of shrugging off responsibility of their action at the cost of Human life.)
B. Tie to the audience: According to the 1st Amendment to the constitution that says we have the right to freedom of speech. I’m sure most of us would agree to the fact that we can say and do what we want and choose. For it is our choice to voice our opinions. In relation, mothers then should have the right to have an abortion for whatever reason the feel is necessary. But what about the innocent unborn, why must we decide for another life?
C. Credibility Material: According to My religion as a Christian, and according to the word of God in the bible, Abortion is very unrighteous and unethical. One important bible verse is “An act of justice is an act of intervention for the helpless, an act of defense for those who are too weak to defend themselves. In foretelling the Messiah”, Psalm 72. Another significant verse from the bible is “God knows the preborn child.” You knit me in my mother’s womb . . . nor was my frame unknown to you when I was made in secret" (Psalm 139:13, 15). It is sinful to destroy the blessing that was created by God.
D. Thesis: From the knowledge of the meaning of abortion and its history to the variety of methods of its practices, ending with the reasons as to why it is unacceptable for it to be practiced, and why abortion should be passed as illegal.
