Freedom Of Choice Unwanted Pregnancies
2,028 wordsHuman life begins at conception. Therefore, abortion is murder of a person. Personhood at conception is a religious belief, not a provable biological fact. Mormon and some Fundamentalist churches believe in personhood at conception; Judaism holds that it begins at birth and abortion is not murder; enrollment theories vary widely within Protestantism.
