Human life is a sacred gift from God. Elective abortion for personal or social convenience is contrary to the will and the commandments of God. As member of the Church of Jesus of Latter Saints known as MORMON church members who submit to, perform, encourage, pay for, or arrange for such abortions may lose their membership in the church. In today's society, abortion has become common practice, defended by deceptive arguments. According to the Bible which found in the bible " Thou shalt not.......Kill, nor do anything like unto it. Our church leaders have said that some exceptional circumstances may justify an abortion, such as when pregnancy is the result of incest or rape, when the life or health or the mother is judged by competent medical authority to be in serious jeopardy, or when the fetus is known by competent medical authority to have severe defects that not will not allow the baby to survive beyond birth. But even circumstances should consider abortion only after consulting their local church leaders and receiving confirmation through earnest prayer. When a child is conceived out of wedlock, the best option is for that mother and father of the child to marry and work toward establishing an eternal family relationship. If a successful marriage is unlikely, they should place the child for adoption.

I completely disagree. If you can't take care of a child, it doesn't deserve to grow up living like crap. It's just a life. And until it grows a brain and such, it's not even that. And for a poor person, yet another mouth to feed. Besides. Abortion controls overpopulation. And abortion is a very good thing when it comes to handicapped people and people that you know is gonna live a crappy life. How do you think people with downs feel about their situation when they see other kids their age run around having the best time? I know I'd feel like crap. And malformed babies will grow up and have a terrible life. Do you really think they deserve to live in pain just because you think every child is "god's special creature"? So before you say abortion is wrong, think about other people's feelings and situations. If you want a baby, sure go for it. But think about all the hard work you'll need to go though if your baby turn out to be "special". And not only that, but think about him and how he'll handle it. So instead of being ego, there's always adoption? There are tons of kids out there waiting for a parent. And they need it. You don't Need a deformed or mentally challenged child. And most of them need to go through life making the best of a bad situation just because of your selfishness. Sorry I repeated myself there a few times:)

You are free to believe what you want as per your belief system, but for others such as myself without a religion, abortion isn't something to be considered a sin. Bodily autonomy of the pregnant person overrides that of a potential person.

Thanks a ton for sharing this discussion. Yes u are very much correct, killing a child when he or she is in a mother's womb is against the law of nature and those who are practicing it without the knowledge of others should be heavily punished. We have no right in taking away the life of those who have even not taken birth on this earth. What say?

I definitely agree with you. For me abortion is sin. Whatever we see it's still a sin.
