Abortion and Conscience
Malik, Kenan
http://kenanmalik.wordpress.com/2012/08/30/abortion-and-conscienceDate Written: 2012-08-30 Year Published: 2012 Resource Type: Article Cx Number: CX14527 I am as in favour of a woman’s right to abortion as I am hostile to Creationism. I recognize, however, a fundamental difference between insisting that all biology teachers teach the theory of evolution and forcing a doctor to perform an abortion against his or her will. I recognize, too, a fundamental difference between defending a woman’s right to choose and insisting that this includes the right to compel a doctor to perform an abortion. Not to recognise such distinctions is to distort the very idea of morality. Subject Headings |
