Abortion

From the Paper:

"In 1966, abortion was a crime in virtually every state in the union. In 1972, it was still a crime in a majority of states. Then, on January 22, 1973, the U.S. Supreme Court legalized abortion in the famous Roe v. Wade decision. Today, abortion is the most frequently performed legal operation in the United States.. The simplistic slogans and placards of the "Right to life" and "Pro-choice" factions do not even begin to deal with the complexity of the moral issues involved in abortion. In this paper, we will attempt to give serious consideration to the arguments for and against the legal practice of abortion under various circumstances.

However, before we examine the rationale behind and consequences of the two sides, it is important for us to look at exactly what the Supreme Court said in the Roe v. Wade decision."
