Publisher's Synopsis
Seminar paper from the year 2016 in the subject Ethics, grade: A, Colorado State University, course: HSM 410, language: English, abstract: For this portfolio project I will discuss the moral consequences for both pro-life and pro-choice decisions, the conflict when more than one ethical principle is at stake and how set in stone ethical rules are when a sensitive human rights dilemma exists. First trimester abortions have had their fair share of contention between conservative anti-abortionists and liberal pro-choice advocates. Late term abortions, which are usually per-formed after 20 weeks gestation and considered vary rare, typically have most people with high moral human code enraged. Personally, I fare more towards the pro-choice forum when it comes to woman's rights issues as I feel it is a woman's right and her autonomy to choose the best course of action pertaining to her person. The question of morality from the standpoint of late term abortion has a good deal of ambiguity from an ethical standpoint and could very well shift the views of the most devout pro-choice advocate.
