within Protestantism. The religious community will
never reach consensus on the definition of a
"person" or when abortion is morally justified.
Use of the term "pro-abor...

Labor Force Participation Parental Consent

Abortion has been an ongoing issue in the United
States in recent history. There is a constant

being, and that abortion is murder. The debate has
focused primarily on these two arguments, but
