The termination of pregnancy by removing a fetus or embryo from the womb before it can survive on its own is called abortion. Nowadays, abortion is so common that more than forty percent of all women will perform abortion at some time of their reproductive lives. While this numbers are scary, what is more troublesome is that several countries support this dreadful act.

One of the commandments clearly says that murder is erroneous, never acceptable. What this means is that abortion is considered a sin, because it is murdering a human life.
