Description
Definitions:
Abortion: 1 : the termination of a pregnancy after, accompanied by, resulting in, or closely followed by the death of the embryo or fetus: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/abortion
Round 1
Forfeited
Abortion is ethical up until 20 weeks because a fetus can't feel pain until then. Over 98% of abortions happen before 20 weeks(https://www.cdc.gov/reproductivehealth/data_stats/abortion.htm)
I'm pro life but I felt like playing Devil's advocate.
Ethical: relating to beliefs about what is morally right and wrong.
