having problems with their husband or partner (AGI).

What do you feel is right

abortion

No abortion

If you look at fetus and what the legal or biological definition of

life is, you will see that a fetus is in fact a life. Even if you don't
accept the fact that a fetus is a life, you should still be opposed
to abortion due to the physiological impact on the woman and
how women are 25% more likely to commit suicide. Abortion is
wrong, it's murder of a life, and it's damaging to the woman, so
how can a person possibly think it's right when the facts and
evidence is against them?

Embryonic stem cell research uses a human embryo, and is

thought to be able to cure up to 70 major diseases and has
actually been proven to cure cancer. If for every baby aborted
we cured a dying cancer patient, there would actually be a bit
of an equilibrium; no lives added, no lives taken away.
However, there's more. Modern abortion procedures are very
safe; in fact, the woman only has a one in 100,000 chance of
death. On the other hand, a woman has a 13.3 out of 100,000
chance of dying from birth. So, for every 100,000 babies
aborted, we'd be saving roughly 12 women. If you combine
this with stem cell research, more loves are already being
saved.
