Copenhegan Consensus 2004
Should abortion be a legal right for all woman in the world?
A person can either be in support of abortion or against it, but do you really think that anyone has the right to murder an innocent human being? In my opinion, abortion should be banned because it means to kill a new life, no matter what stage of pregnancy it is in, and its putting a woman's body in danger because the result is not always pleasant; it could go the opposite of what you envisioned. The main and the most important contributing factor to why abortion should not be legal is the physical health risks it provokes, mainly breast cancer. Furthermore, women should have a sense of personal responsibility of their behavior. Abortion should be illegalized because it encourages prostitution. In today's society, with all the technology surrounding us, some people believe it is a very easy process, therefore they mate whenever they want and get an abortion even before reflecting on their own decision of killing an innocent life. Long before, thousands upon thousands women had illegal abortions and died. According to me, if women are responsible enough to have sexual intercourse, they should also be responsible enough to raise a child that is growing in their stomach. Finally, many consider the fetus a human life, and thus ending a human life is murder. I also agree. Women around the world, especially Canada, have been given the freedom of speech, and are honorable to make their own decisions, but they do not have the right to choose when to kill the fetus. According to me, another reason why women choose to have an abortion is because they are insecure of the way they look, but abortion isn't a choice about what a woman does with her own body, there are not one, but two bodies involved. Unborn babies are human beings from the moment of conception and have a fundamental right to life. There are countless number of couples in the world who are struggling to conceive a baby, but they are ready to adopt
