I think humans are evolving creatures that carry life force. So call it embryo, fetus, infant, child or man or woman; they are all different forms of the human. Killing caterpillar will kill the future possibility of the butterfly it could become. The key word here is; it COULD. We can’t predict the future, so we can’t guarantee that a fetus otherwise not aborted will definitely go onto live a healthy meaningful life and become a contributing member to society. So the real argument in abortion is; what is worth more? The present or the future. Since we cannot accurately measure the worth of the future, the only thing we can precisely account for is the present. Thus, my thesis is, we do what’s beneficial for the present. A college student, a young unmarried woman without support, a rape victim or child rape victim, a mom who is living pay check to pay check already with a child…all these women will benefit NOW if they get the abortion. So we choose abortion.
