Let me first begin by saying that I believe it is not our place to tell others that their beliefs are wrong. Everyone has a right to their beliefs, views, and opinions, even if others think those beliefs, views, and opinions are wrong.
With that said, when it comes to abortion, I can see the argument from both sides, and I believe each side is sincere in their position to support or not support abortion. There are strong opinions on both sides, and I don't think either side can be persuaded when it comes to abortion.
However, personally, when it comes to abortion, it is not so much that I am for killing an unborn baby. I just believe that everyone has a right to personal autonomy. Everyone should get to decide what happens to their body.
There will be those that say, "Then an unborn baby has the right to choose life over death because a baby is a person from the point of conception." I understand this viewpoint, I truly do. But my thoughts are that an unborn baby does not have the capacity to make that decision for itself. The woman gets to make the decision because the baby is inside HER body.
The baby may be a soul from the moment of fertilization but the baby’s right to life does not override the mother’s right to control her body.
We each own and control our bodies and no one should decide what we do with our bodies but each of us individually. If a woman decides that she wants to carry a baby to term or does not want to, it must be HER choice.
A stranger should not have the right to decide for a woman what she does with her body.
I just wanted to share my thoughts. Feel free to give your thoughts on this topic.
