of each differ, both fight for the unborn fetus. The friend versus enemy battle between the politicians and Planned Parenthood determine the community of pro-life. The same goes for the movie, the battle between characters and Lucy Mae’s conscience prove to be pro-life. The main difference is how each argues. Planned Parenthood takes a more political stand and Doonby reaches towards the audience’s emotion. Doonby refers to the unknown potential that the unborn fetus could possibly have, while the
Trying to prevent neglected children and back-alley abortions, Margaret Sanger gave the moving speech, “The Children’s Era,” in 1925 to spread information on the benefits and need for birth control and women's rights. Margaret Sanger--activist, educator, writer, and nurse--opened the first birth control clinic in the United States and established organizations that evolved into the Planned Parenthood Federation of America. During most of the 1900’s, birth control and abortions were illegal in the
The Grand Inquisitor, as described by Ivan, puts himself in a very pessimistic attitude toward human nature, he states humans are in essence weak and they need to be controlled through miracle mystery and authority. On this thematic I chose the following quote, “That day must come when men will understand that freedom and daily bread enough to satisfy all are unthinkable and can never be had together, as men will never be able to fairly divide the two among themselves. And they will also learn that
(b) Invitation to attend the Marriage Supper of the Lamb “Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.

And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed [are] they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb” (Revelations 19:9, 10). The Greek word “harphazo” describes rapture as an event

You and I have both lost people close to us. Put yourself in my shoes, think about how I feel. When you lost your parents in that storm you felt helpless. It hurt didn’t it?” Rikki’s eyes begin to tear up. “How do you think I would feel when my puny unborn baby was killed by some clever mongoose? Ever heard the saying think before you do?

If life was not started at conception in these cases and scientifically the unborn child could not be having any thoughts or actions running through the brain the argument would be stronger to persuade the anti-abortion side. Personally, taking away an unborn living thinking fetus’s rights just because we cannot hear them or see them physically does not seem justified. In case eight I do not see how women can just
This story’s theme is that people put their pain and fears behind to save the ones they love.

When the house was burning and her daughter, the narrator, was trapped, she put her past, that she helplessly tried to hide, aside and saved her daughter. Feelings that she didn’t save her first daughter

Although, in our country unborn babies are beginning to have less, and less rights. One of the main rights that was taken away from them is the right to live. Mothers now have the option to murder an unborn baby, due to the fact that they believe it is not a human being yet. The unborn are separate humans who deserve to have rights like all humans. A person is defined as: an individual human, one who is not a part of another. “ It is biologically false to say that the unborn is not an individual.”1

You’re Introduction: Hello, and welcome to my individual oral commentary on “You’re” by Sylvia Plath. The poem portrays the idea of pregnancy and motherhood.
