Abortion by Patricia (U3)

An abortion is the termination of a pregnancy by the removal or expulsion from the uterus of a fetus/embryo, resulting in a death. It Can occur spontaneously due to complications during pregnancy or it can be induced.

In many parts of the world there is prominent and divisive public controversy over the ethical and legal issues of abortion. Some countries are secular, but they let the churches interfere. In Brazil, for example, the abortion is a crime, unless in the fetus/embryo may cause the death of the mother, in other words, a risk of death for the mother, in cases of rape too.

In the whole world, there are people against and favor; the main positions are the pro-choice position, which argues in favor of access to abortion, and the pro-life position, which argues against access to abortion.
Opinions of abortion may be described as being a combination of beliefs on its morality, and beliefs on the responsibility, ethical scope, and proper extent of governmental authorities in public policy. Religious ethics also has an influence upon both personal opinion and the greater debate over abortion.

In my opinion, the problem is when the religious ethics interfere and has an influence upon personal opinion and the great debate over abortions. The religion is very important for the human, but I think in cases like this the approval of the priest or minister isn’t necessary. Every case is a different case. I believe that people can choose what they wanted, of course that it is important to have some laws in cases like abortion, analyzing the case and if it is necessary to do, or many women will do the illegal or legal abortion in clinics not so reliable.

Finally, we have to have good doctors, clinics. Of course all of this is far from being done, especially in Brazil, but it is the right procedure.
