1. What is your stance on abortion? Give three reasons why (this is your own thoughts). Explain clearly and use a lot of detail. - 5 points
1. My stance on abortion is that I think that abortion should be illegal. One reason why I think this is because I believe that every child (whether born or unborn) should have a chance to live life. If the child is aborted, then it's like not giving rights to a baby. Even if the fetus isn't born yet, it still has rights, including the right to live. Another reason is because I don't think that killing a fetus is right. Even if pregnancy was disrupting a person's life, we're still talking about killing an unborn baby. My third reason why I think that abortion should be illegal is because if people were having intercourse, and the woman got pregnant accidentally, she shouldn't be able to get an abortion. This is because if she didn't want to get pregnant, then she shouldn't have had intercourse in the first place. She should have just lived on normally, and then she wouldn't have had any concerns. This is why I believe that abortion should be illegal.
2. Copy/paste evidence that supports that supports your views. Make sure you use quotation marks (" ") because these are NOT your words. - 3 points
2. "Some join other pro-life advocates and say that the right to life should always outweigh the right of an individual to equality or to control their own body."
3. Explain the quote you chose for number 2 in your own words. You can explain it in the following ways: relate it to something that happened in your life or someone else's, explain why you agree with the statement, explain it to the reader with more detail in case the reader might not understand the quote, or give the reader a hypothetical situation in which the quote plays out. (Whichever why you decide to explain your quote, you should have at least 3 sentences to be thorough) - 6 points
3.What the quote from question 2 means is that even if you have the right to do whatever you want with your body, every unborn fetus should still be born. I agree with this quote because if abortions keep on continuing, then babies that were aborted will never get the chance to live. The unborn fetus will not be able to live because someone else made the choice for them to be killed. I also think that this quote is correct because if women abort their fetus, then what they are actually doing is controlling someone else's body. Not only would they be doing this, but they would also be taking over someone else's life (that is, the baby's life). This does not go along with what pro-choice people believe, which is that women should have the choice to do what they want with their bodies.
4. Repeat step 2 with a new quote
4. "Some feminists oppose all forms of violence, including abortion, because they are inconsistent with the core feminist principles of justice, non-violence and non-discrimination."
5. Repeat step 3 to explain the new quote
5. What the quote from question 4 means is that some people that fight for women's rights don't agree with violence, like abortion, for the reason that abortion doesn't go along with rights of women, like no violence, no treating women differently, and always doing the correct thing for everyone, including women. I think that this quote is correct because killing a person is violence, so I think that aborting a fetus is still violence. This is because that abortion is ending a baby's life before it is born. However, even if the baby hasn't been born, it is still living inside a woman's body.
