Abortion

Abortion is a hot topic for many. Many people have opinions about it. Mine is no exception. First of all, I’m not looking at this to judge anyone’s decision whether to have an abortion or not because it’s their own decision to make. It’s intensely sensitive, personal thing a person has to face and no one should be judged for it just because a woman made a choice. I wanted to share my opinion on this sensitive topic.

I used to be Pro-choice. I had a change of heart and I’m in favor of Pro-life. After I learned more about God’s Word, I realize that all creation, babies and the like, comes from our Creator. I’d hate it to see an unborn child aborted due to careless planning on both parents’ action. I believe that abortion can be eliminated if all people had access to free birth control choices or abstain completely if they wanted to. I do understand that people abort their fetuses for various reasons but I feel that abortion shouldn’t be there in the first place. I do understand people’s right to enjoy physical pleasure or don’t want to have children but they have to be prepared beforehand.

I don’t believe an abortion is the solution to any unintended pregnancy on both parties’ sides, poverty or financial instability, being in college, rape, or underage pregnancy. These reasons are the excuses or reasons to have abortion for many people but they forget about the alternative: adoption. There are many couples or individuals with means being able to afford an adoption of a child and cannot have children of their own. Whether adoption is a good idea or not is an entirely different topic. On account of health when it comes to serious danger to both mother and child, it may be aborted naturally or to induce one. Abortion shouldn’t be like something you hop in and have a quick cosmetic surgery just because it’s a non-living entity growing within one’s body so it’s as easy as popping a morning after pill or undergoing surgery. I believe that before doing any sexual activity the couples or individuals choosing to do this need to think about the costly consequences that come after the heat of passion wears away. Abortion can be prevented in the first place by using any form of birth control or abstain completely (the biblical way). Abstinence, in my honest opinion, is the best gift ever to give yourself. Once you lose your virginity, you will never get it back and you’re in danger of pregnancy, STDs, pain, and more. It’s not a game to play.
