The Right to Life

Yes, I think fetuses have a right to life. To say that they do not have a right to life would mean that we, who were once fetuses, had no right to life. And I think we do have a right to life, so that is why I think fetuses have a right to life. Since they do not have a voice to speak for themselves, I am sure that they would wish to not be aborted.

Since I do think they have a right to life, I do think they have a right to not be aborted. I only say that because if I were to say that they do not the right to be not aborted then I would be contradicting myself, in a way. Since having a right to life is being able to live and be born then having a right to not be aborted is the same thing. It is being able to live and be born. So to me, these two seem very similar.

If fetuses had the right to life but did not have the right to not be aborted, then that would make no sense. To say that they do not have a right to not be aborted would be taking away their right to life. So I do not see how one would be without the other. Also to say that fetuses have the right to not be aborted but do not have the right to life would also make no sense. Because not being aborted gives the ability to live life and they way I see the right to life, is being able to live life.


I sound really confusing right now, so I will just stop there. =]
