Abortion as a Social Issue
This is an excerpt from the paper...
Abortion is a very sensitive topic in the United States society. Abortion is the topic of many important lawsuits in the country--from 1973 to the present--being decided by the United States Supreme Court. This research paper will outline the historical background of the abortion problem and discuss abortion as a social issue. The paper will explore the social problems exploited by advocates on the topic. This means (in plain English) that the paper will be based on writings on the subject. The reason of this is: writings on the subject of abortion have very strong ("extreme") emotions behind them. The extreme emotions are the biggest part of the abortion writings from all points of view. Exploiting happens when the writers wish the readers to agree only with what the writers say.

It is important to say that Lake does not agree with antiabortion ideas. But Lake wants to explain what they are. Also it is important to say that some anti-choice supporters do want to debate. Stein is an example of this. However, his idea of debate is to criticize pro-choice ideas.
I know that there are intelligent people who disagree strongly with what I say here. I used to disagree strongly myself--before we had our own adopted son, before we saw what might have been sucked out and ground up in a "clinic" or "women's health centers" (most absurd terms for killing rooms for little girls and boys), before we learned what everyone now knows about just how alive a baby in the womb is. But I think any intelligent man or woman who thinks about just the possibility that abortion is murder will have a hard time stopping before the terminus of the notion that it is murder. And for those who don't care to make the trip down that road, perhaps you can imagine the feelings of the tens of millions of us who see clearly that abortion is a violent killing of the most innocent of humans (Stein, 1998, p
