Resolved: The United States Government should make abortion illegal.

How pregnancy does begin? It started with an intercourse, and then the sperm penetrates with the ovum, fertilizes, and a new human life has begin (no need for source. It is basic science). This life has a biochemical identity through DNA that is different and unique from any other individuals. [1] How did abortion become legal in the U.S.? In the 1960s, colleges and universities began a sexual revolution which resulted to unwanted pregnancies and in turn, pressured lawmakers to allow and legalize abortion. [2] [3] In 1967, many states started to do so. And then, in 1973, the U.S. Supreme Court finished Roe v. Wade, and initially made abortion legal throughout America. From that day on, 57 million innocent lives (as of 2015) have been lost by this practice. [4] With that figure, the most gruesome war has been ongoing for 40 years now and has gone undiscovered. This terror is as ghastly as anything terrorists can pinpoint because it destroys the basic community of man: family. By damaging the simplest human bond of all, a mother and a child, abortion breaks down the valued glue that unites America.There are many cases that women die later on or cannot conceive further children because nearly half of the abortions that are executed around the world are performed by unskilled doctors. [1] [2] Abortion has taught mankind that there is a way out of pregnancy. It also influenced the youth wherein we should teach them the frugality of sex. It also has an impact to young people where they would know that there is no severe effect for that primary doing. Abortion can also have a negative impact for families. Performing an abortion is not some good role modeling skills and it can damage family relations because of the decision they have done. [3] [4] Abortion is also a very heart aching thing to do as it is impossible to undo or alter. Abortion can also cause many medical problems such as bladder injury, bowel injury, ectopic pregnancy, hemorrhage, hepatitis, infection, laceration of the cervix, miscarriages, uterus perforation, placenta previa, post-abortion syndrome, breast cancer (as mentioned in the previous round), and many more. There is a possibility that your baby would be incomplete and a less chance of delivering a normal birth [5]. Furthermore, the National Cancer Institute conducted a study that states that the risk of breast cancer for those who had induced abortion was 50% higher than other women. [14]There are also aftermaths of not safe abortion. Worldwide, the unsafe practice of this is 220 per 100,000. [6] It is even higher than what Con stated that “normal birth gives 8.8 out of 100,000 deaths. “For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb.14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.15 My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth.16 Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.” Psalm 139:13-16David elaborates it clearly that he was there personally, and not as a blotch of tissue that later developed into his human figure. “"I knew you before I formed you in your mother's womb. Before you were born I set you apart and appointed you as my prophet to the nations." Jeremiah 1:5The above Bible passage points out that every child that is in the mother’s womb is unique. In the Old Testament, God required death penalty to mothers who gave birth to a child prematurely and dies. However, if no “mischief” follows, the death penalty is not being executed."If men strive, and hurt a woman with child, so that her fruit depart from her, and yet no mischief follow: he shall be surely punished, according as the woman's husband will lay upon him; and he shall pay as the judges determine. And if any mischief follow, then thou shalt give life for life," Exodus 21:22-23Why would God demands death penalty if He didn’t recognize the fetus as a human being?Think about this: at two weeks pregnancy the fetus can move alone. By four weeks the fetus has limbs, muscle tissue, heart and a heartbeat. In the fifth week, eyes, ears, and small hands are developed. The fetus can now react to touch by the sixth and seventh week. Now, when a mother aborts in the eighth week or more than, the poor child sometimes tries to breath (if twelve weeks old, the fetus often strives for life two or three hours after being aborted). [10] [11] And the baby that is eight weeks old or more than endures real physical pain. [12] To think, the fetus’ heart starts beating at 20 days, and began to send brainwaves from his brain in 40 days, these factors are used by the law to verify death (brain and heartbeat). Why these can’t be used to ascertain life? (13)And one of the commandments of God in the Book of Exodus, it says “Thou shalt not murder.” What is murder? According to the Bible, it is an intentional killing of an innocent human being. Therefore, it is illogical to say that the majority of believers support abortion. Two questions, among others, should be asked. One, are they religious enough? Two, do they read the Bible daily or attend the Church weekly? [8] There are many more Bible verses that prove that abortion is the shedding of innocent blood, violation of the Golden rule, attempts to destroy the work of God, encourages sin, degrades human life, disannuls the plan of God, and shows lack of faith, which I will gladly present in the next round, if the circumstances are favorable. [9]Therefore, abortion is merely an illogical act to commit. Women can mate whenever they want. And there is a possibility that the baby has a better life than anybody else (refer to my statement in Round 1). Moreover, humans are the only animals that deliberately kill the fetus because they only thought of it as a thing. [7]REBUTTALS: (P - Paragraph)- the opening -P.1: My argument completely states that the law sees the baby as a human being, and therefore avoid killing the mother until she completes giving nourishment to it.P.2: P.s 8-15.P.3: P. 15. Using Con's argument, it means that human beings should not eat animal meat because we didn't have that right to use somebody else' body. We are carnivorous; we hunt animals for our food source (and we are becoming more carnivorous). [15]P.4, 5-7: My P. 4 - 5P.6: Roe V. Wade is not the Law of the Land as it isn't passed nationwide.
