Resolved: Abortion should be banned

I thanks my opponents acceptance. C1: A fetus is a humanP1: A fetus is a humanP2: It is morally wrong to kill a humanC: Abortion is immoral. P1: A fetus is a human beingThe human zygote has all the DNA necessary to be a human baby. [1] The embryo has other cells within it that make up the human, blood cells etc. [1] Even at the zygote stage the cell is indefinably alive. [2] There is indisputable evidence that a zygote is , even at this young stage, a human. [3] Every human goes through these stages, and us not being aborted and or miscarried is the reason (other then the procreation) for our existence. Only after 14 days the fetus is already in the uterus. [3] By the end of the 20th day the heart, and the nervous systems are working. The other organs are present but only partially functional. [4] At 6 weeks, brain waves are recorded. [4] The second month the fetus can feel pain, this is in the first trimester. [5] When killing these beings it is not only murder, but gives them excruciating pain, even in the first trimester. [6] Some studies say the fetus may even learn while in the womb. [7]P2: It is morally wrong to kill a humanKilling infringes on basic human rights: the right to life. [8] I my opinion this is self explanatory. I will name the moral misshapen in 3 ways: religion, law, the constitution (still law).Religion:Most, if not all religions, say that murder is a sin and is forsaken. This is not the reason to ban abortion AT ALL, but in this case this means a large sect of the human population would deem abortion immoral. That is why I added this argument, this right here makes a large portion of the people view abortion as immoral.Law:Murder in most countries is illegal and is classified as "illegal homicide". [9] As it is illegal to kill, many laws such as this are based of of religious or social morals. This is one of those laws: Society looks down upon murder, abortion is murder, therefore abortion is immoral. Constitution:"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness". [10]Case closed. C: Abortion is immoral It is wrong to kill human beings. It always has been this way, laws, society, and well everyone looks down upon it. Due to my criteria abortion is in fact a killing of a life, an innocent one, and therefore is immoral. [11] Abortion is an immoral practice, as it is murder, and many like myself find this a fact. C2: Abortion causes increased risk or breast cancer Abortion increases risk of breast cancer by 50%, yes you read it 50%. [12] 5 medical associations currently hold this link to be a fact. [13] Having pregnancy itself increase the risk, but studies show abortion even furthers the risk. [14] First trimester abortion too increases the risk. [14, 15]C3: other side effects of abortion---> Psychological-women that had abortions where at a higher risk of mental problems by 150%. [16, 17] - 44% had nervous disorders, 36 had new sleep problems, 31% highly regretted the choice, 11% needed psychological medicine. [18, 19]-The women had denial before trying to get medical care. [18, 20]---> Physical -breast cancer (see above)-Abdominal pain [21, 22]-Vomiting [21, 22]-bleeding [21,22]-perforation in thy uterus [21, 22]-infection [21, 22]-heavy bleeding [21, 22]---> Other pregnancies?- It may cause bleeding [23, 24]- low birth weight [23, 24]- Placenta previa (causes severe bleeding during birth) [23, 24]- Causes an increased chance of miscarriage. [25, 26]---> ConclusionAbortion is murder, immoral, and has many side effects, including breast cancer itself. I urge a PRO vote. Sources:http://www.nlm.nih.gov... [1]F. Beck, D. B. Moffat, and D. P.
