Introduction: The topic that will be discussed here is Abortion. This is a medical process in which we end a pregnancy so that it does not does not result in the birth of a baby. We may also refer to it as termination of the pregnancy where in this is carried out only after knowing the time to which the pregnancy has passed through to know if we could move ahead with the process of termination since after few weeks it is medically not allowed to proceed with termination of pregnancy. I stand for the topic since I believe every person should have the right and freedom to take decisions for what he or she feels is correct which is why they must have the right to take the decision of their own life and not being judged about the same. The cons section opposes the proposition that I hold regarding the topic because I believe that it should it allowed for any human being to take this decision. The three premises in the cons section that I will be taking up are, abortion is murder, fetuses feel pain during the process of termination and forbids the growth and swear taken by doctors pertaining to their profession. Topic sentence: Abortion is a form of murder The cons believe that abortion is a form of murder and should not be carried out because the killing of any innocent life is wrong even if the child has not yet been born. The government assumes that unborn babies are also human beings and terminating pregnancy is tried to end a human life. The interesting or helpful topic about this view is the fact that they consider unborn babies as humans. Considering that termination is carried out at a very early stage perceiving that these fetuses are babies are interesting. If I keep faith in this view I would notice that actually somewhere down the line the point that has been raised has a validity owing to the fact that the smallest unborn is also a family of homo sapiens and has all the right to survive and have his life. The idea that seems true in this proposition is the fact it is actually an attempt of saving an unborn because he relies completely on other people for life and if his life will be taken like this then there will be no scope of producing more babies in this world. I feel this is true under such conditions where in parents feel that they are being bound by the responsibility of a child and therefore they do not wish to take this step. This is why I feel one should make an attempt to save lives that are being spoilt in this manner. Topic sentence: Fetus feels pain during abortion The next cons present the view that fetuses feel pain during the process of removal of them from the body. The interesting or the helpful part in this view are the various studies that are being carried out to check and know the amount of pain that these fetuses have been facing in all this time and is it really true that the fetuses do feel the pain. I would rather notice the fact that there are studies proving that fetuses feel a kind of most primitive response to the pain which is a spinal flex. There have been studies stating the fact that fetuses d feel pain in their very first trimester and that fetus is beyond 20 weeks then it is bound to experience pain. In believing its view I noticed that there is excruciating pain that is caused to the fetus because of this kind of operation. While performing the termination on a 12 week child it has been showed that people can see the mouth of child open and him feeling pain in all that process. This idea is true under the sense that it has been stated owing to the fact that since it has been established by medical standards hence we might believe it to be true. There is life inside and that life will be pained if anything surgical is performed to it. Therefore this is a concept that has to be believed no matter what. Topic sentence: Morally incorrect for medical practitioners since it is against their profession. The next cons position that is presented is in the fact that it is morally not right for the doctors who take an oath during the medical process that they shall be involved only with saving human life and nothing more than that. The reason that makes this fact more interesting is that while they are swearing in oath for their profession there is one section that debarred them for providing any kind of contraception to women to end the lives of the new born in any manner. Hence this makes it all the more erroneous for women who cannot undertake such a task alone and will need medical help for the same. IN believing this view I will notice that yes this stands to be right since what I feel is that it is only into the women that relies the responsibility and also the medical practitioners who have the sole responsibility of giving birth to new life. Therefore in this utmost sense I would prefer to believe that killing it is going against the professional vows that are taken. Moreover this is true under conditions here people do it knowingly just for fun and then try aborting the child once it is conceived. We as human beings have no right to take somebody else's life and we are prohibited by it not only by law but also by God almighty. Hence it is up to us to know that we cannot follow this practice of termination. Conclusion After this study I would like to believe that initially I was of the opinion that every human being has the right and responsibility to take the decisions of their lie and shape their life as per what they want but eventually during the course of this discussion I would say that the points stated here are too valid to go against them citing the majority of them are justified under the rule of law or God. It is for us to control and know how to use the contraceptive measures to get into any such conditions and if we are into it then we have no right to need up a humble life and therefore we should then proceed with it. It is into our lives that we need to know what is best and that is not weighing all options that are possible in every aspect.

This assignment asks you to engage in this aspect of critical thinking. The assignment is divided into two (2) parts. For Part I of the assignment (due Week 2), you read a book excerpt about critical thinking processes, reviewed the Procon.org Website in order to gather information, and engaged in prewriting to examine your thoughts. * Remember that in the Week 2 Discussion, you examined the biases discussed in Chapter 2 of the webtext. In Part II of the assignment (due Week 4), you will write a paper to synthesize your ideas. Part II – Writing Write at three to four (3-4) page paper in which you: 1. State your position on the topic you selected for Assignment 1.1. 2. Identify (3) three premises (reasons) from the Procon.org website that support your position    and explain why you selected these specific reasons. 3. Explain your answers to the "believing" questions about the three (3) premises opposing your position from the Procon.org website. 4. Examine at least two (2) types of biases that you likely experienced as you evaluated the premises for and against your position.    5. Discuss the effects of your own enculturation or group identification that may have influenced your biases. 6. Discuss whether or not your thinking about the topic has changed after playing the "Believing Game," even if your position on the issue has stayed the same.
