Aboriton Paper

This is my persuasive paper that I had to write for school. I think I did a good job on it but I had to write it aagain and again because I either had a lot of erros or I was lazy.
Abortion Kills!
Abortion is when a baby is killed; it is a choice the mother makes for her baby. A baby cannot survive outside the mother’s womb, so they take the baby outside the womb. The baby has not developed the right functions to survive so it dies. I believe it is not the mother’s choice to abort her baby. It would be much better if the baby was given to up for adoption to a loving couple, than aborting it.
Here is a bible verse I found on a prolife website. “Did not He who made me in the womb make them? Did not the same One form us both in our mothers? (Job 31:15). In Luke 1:41 Jesus was present in Mary’s womb so when she visited Elizabeth John the Baptist leaped in Elizabeth’s womb!

Some Scientists (but not all) believe abortion is the mother’s choice, but it shouldn’t be. Some Scientists do not believe the baby has life until the day it’s born. The baby will kick in the mother’s womb, and with an ultrasound you can see the baby’s heart beating! The heart will start to beat on the 25th day of the pregnancy, and the brain will start to develop as early as the 40th day. Yet some scientists and people fail to believe it’s a life.

Even a mentally challenged baby counts as a life, however the mother might still feel embarrassed and abort it. Mentally challenged babies deserve a chance. The mother can always change her mind and give her baby up for adoption, if she feels she can’t take care of it. All life is sacred to God He even says so in Jeremiah 29:11. “For I know the plans I have for you declares the Lord, plans to prosper you not to harm you, plans to give you hope an a future”. You see God even has a plan for mentally challenged babies too.

I can’t force you to think abortion is wrong, but I can help you think differently about it. If an animal was aborted people would say that was cruel, but babies are aborted every day, so why don’t people think of it as cruel? When was the last time you held a baby? That was life and so is life in the womb. I am grateful that my mom did not abort me; she knew it would be difficult to take care of me because of her disorder but she chose to give me life. But then she made a bad choice when I was 6 and I became a foster kid. I am grateful because now I can fulfill God’s plan he has for me, and if a baby is aborted it cannot fulfill the plan God has for it.
