I'm working on an abortion essay for a contest. While doing some research about the true nature of this bloody industry, I came across a lot of disgusting pictures. Instead of posting any of them, I think this one captures the nature of 99% of abortions fairly well.
I think it's pitiful that abortion has lasted for 30 years in the USA. Maybe it's because, unlike other human rights' issues, the people who are victims cannot speak out. They have no votes, no political sway. The mothers who want to get abortions (or fathers who force them to) are the ones who control the situation.
Moreover, the industry of abortion is huge - millions of dollars fuel a giant practice of slaughter. (I am still looking up figures, I'll post the whole essay when I'm done.) It's like trying to take down gambling. The casinos and those addicted to gambling will fight with all their power to keep the casinos open. And sadly, most of those who don't gamble are apathetic towards it; they don't want to tell others how to live their lives.
Yet the Bible does give us instructions on how to live, and I think that the government has a responsibility to outlaw sinful practices. Its purpose is to punish wrongdoers and protect the nation from invasion. I believe that there is a lot of wrong being done through the Roe v. Wade decision in this country, and it's time to change it.
P.S. more on this later, when I finish my essay. I will get some facts and refine these crude arguments, which are more like appeals to emotion than anything else.
