Abstract
Abortion remains one of the most famous debated social and moral issues. Both
pro-life and pro-choice groups present powerful arguments for and against abortion. The
pro-life group emphasizes the value of protecting human life since conception at any cost,
on the basis of the fact that human life is a sacred gift from God to humanity and should
be treated with respect and reverence. The pro-choice group emphasizes the argument
that women should have a right to control their body to the point of absolutizing her right
over the natural phenomenon of development of a new being. Because of this for at least
25 years now, the issue of abortion has grown increasingly difficult in our contemporary
society.
