1. What is your stance on abortion? Give three reasons why (this is your own thoughts). Explain clearly and use a lot of detail. - 5 points
My stance on abortion is pro-life. I believe that everyone should have a right to live no matter who you are, even unborn babies. I think that most women that have abortions are women who were irresponsible and selfish. They don't want to take responsibility for their action so they take the easy way out. They would rather just get the abortion and continue on with their life without looking back.
2. Copy/paste evidence that supports that supports your views. Make sure you use quotation marks (" ") because these are NOT your words. - 3 points
"therefore a woman who becomes pregnant should accept the pregnancy as the consequence of taking the risk involved in sexual intercourse...... therefore she should allow the resulting foetus/moral person to be born , therefore she should not abort the foetus/moral person"
3. Explain the quote you chose for number 2 in your own words. You can explain it in the following ways: relate it to something that happened in your life or someone else, explain why you agree with the statement, explain it to the reader with more detail in case the reader might not understand the quote, or give the reader a hypothetical situation in which the quote plays out. (Whichever why you decide to explain your quote, you should have at least 3 sentences to be thorough) - 6 points
I agree with the quote above because it supports my stance on abortion. If you know that you are not ready to have children then you should take the necessary steps to make sure that it doesn't happen and not do something about it later on when it's too late. Once the process of human life has begun, he or she has the right to be born and live his/her life.

4. "Since the reason that is sufficient to explain why it is wrong to kill human beings after the time of birth is a reason that also applies to foetuses, it follows that abortion is morally wrong."
5. This quote is basically saying that by aborting the baby, you are taking away its future. You never know if that little baby may grow up to become president or find a cure. The parents never gave him/her a chance to live, to experience life. It's wrong to kill a baby after they are born so what makes it okay to kill them before they are born. Aren't they still the same person? Well they are, so what makes it legal to kill them just because they are still in their mom's stomach.
