    Topic: PRO ABORTION/ PRO-CHOICE BELIEFS

    I. Women should have the right to safe and legal abortions.


    A. If abortions are outlawed, women will continue to have “back alley”
    abortions by unlicensed doctors, resulting in more health problems and
    deaths for women.
    1. All people deserve medical care that allows them to be healthy and
    happy, both mentally and physically.
    2. Some say that the “beginning of life” argument is not a valid argument
    anyway, since the embryo is dependent on the mother’s body for
    survival and therefore is not a viable life in its own right.

    II. Women have the right to privacy.


    A. Women have the right to privacy.
    B. Under the constitution we are guaranteed the right to privacy.

    III. For some women, a pregnancy will threaten their psychological and mental well-
    being. An abortion, in some cases, will help them to lead better and more productive
    lives.
    A. Some young girls might not be able to give the baby up for adoption, keep
    the child, and possibly abuse it themselves.
    B. Some young girls might be abused by their parent if their parents find out.
    IV. Conclusion: Abortion is beneficial and should be allowed on demand.

    Every day, the media run a story of a child, or a woman for that matter, who has been
    raped either by people known to them or by strangers. Thus, legalizing abortion will
    solve cases of unwanted pregnancies arising from such cases and complications during
    pregnancies. Some of these cases lead to transmission of STIs and pregnancy. When a
    pregnancy occurs due to rape, the victim is not to blame, the perpetrator is. Moreover,
    most of the victims are not ready for these pregnancies. Thus, abortion becomes the best
    alternative to get rid of the pregnancies. The Bible and the Catholic Church are against
    abortion, but the reason should prevail. The victims did ask for their predicament. They
    are victims of circumstances, victims of sex pests.

    Sometimes, complications arise during pregnancy, and the doctor decides to save the life
    of the mother. Of course, this means that the fetus dies, but that would be better than to
    lose both lives of the mother and of the unborn (Gruber, Levine, Staiger & National
    Bureau of Health Research, 2007). In this case, abortion is justified. Such complications
    have been on the rise in the recent past, some have led to avoidable deaths. Religion and
    beliefs are to blame. Recently, a case did the rounds in social media, and one that
    generated a significant debate. The woman in question was a staunch Jehovah Witness
    follower. She was suffering from a rare pregnancy condition. Her life as well as the life
    of her unborn was in danger.

    The doctor recommended terminating the pregnancy in order to save the life of the
    mother. However, she refused to abort due to the citing phrases from the Bible, and the
    teachings of the church. She died. If she had agreed to listen to the doctor’s advice, she
    would have lived. It is not in the interest of doctors to interfere with people’ religious
    beliefs, but their right to life remains paramount (Katsh & Rose, 2010). In the case of a
    pregnant mother and her unborn, where complications in pregnancy may lead to loss of
    lives of both, it is better to save the life of the mother, through abortion. “It is better to
    spill water from a pot than to break the pot; a sound pot can always carry more water.”
