Outline
I. Abortion
A. Who: Victims: unborn children perpetrators: woman who carry them in their womb: doctor
B. What: an operation to end a pregnancy
C. Where: Abortion all over the united states
D. Why: Woman want to get abortions because some think they are not ready for a child. they think abortion is the easiest and cleanest way out. Sometimes the woman may not be able to support he baby and she may think abortion is her only option. Others get abortion to simply escape and unwanted pregnancy
E. How: 1.21 million abortions took place in 2008
II. Solution 1
A. My first solution would be to put an end to abortion by making it illegal everywhere in the United States. 1. There are many people in charge of putting a stop. The government needs to make the first step and make abortion illegal. Some people can make protest to the government about abortion to stimulate the actions toward making abortion illegal. 2. The solution does not need much money at all. It does not require much money at all to pass a bill or law. 3. The evidence that will show that this solution is working would be lover abortion rates. more people will have to keep their babies because there will to be an option of abortion.
B. CST themes: 1. THe life and dignity of the human person: no one should have their fate decided by someone else. Only God takes people when he needs them with him, no one else has the right to take away a life. Also no babies will die if it is illegal (power over) 2. Rights and responsibilities: it is the responsibility of the mother to love and care for her unborn baby, she is responsible for most things that happen to he baby and she should treat it with her loving maternal care. Also if it was illegal the mother would have to keep it and grow up and take responsibility of the child (power over) 3. Care for Gods creations: every human being is made in the likeliness and image of God. if
