The debate on abortion is an argument between people who are pro-life and people who are pro-choice. Whether or not I'm pro-life or pro-choice, I will be expressing my opinions on abortion. The pro-life aims to conserve human life. They are against abortion because they believe it is the murder of a human life. Many of them would prove that even God condemns abortion by quoting the sixth commandment, "thou shalt not kill". It means that one human should not take the life of another human. Any civilised person would agree that murdering humans is iniquitous. However, is a fetus or embryo considered to be a human life? The Bible leaves no clear answer to this question. The 600 plus laws of Moses makes no explicit statements regarding abortions.
