The subject of abortion is extremely difficult to argue because these choices are based on moral and ethical ideals. In Amy Reynolds’ blog, she compares two online articles one that is pro-life and the other, pro-choice. Amy’s response to the articles was unbiased and summarized the main points of each article.
The first article was on pro-abortion or pro-choice. This article is gave the history of the pro-choice movement. It discusses the legal history of abortions. The Supreme Court case, Roe vs. Wade, was the first law to ever legalize abortions. This was a huge victory towards the pro-choice side. This article more brings up the debate of abortion and lets the reader decide rather than persuade the reader one way or another.
The second article Amy used came from an anti-abortion organization siding with pro-life. Within the website of this organization, there were many different articles that were very persuasive towards pro-life. It uses many different facts and data to show that an abortion can be dangerous and harmful to the woman. This organization uses this data to persuade the reader that abortions are dangerous and considered murder.
I happen to be pro-choice but I think the pro-life article was more persuasive. It had more scientific data to support what it was saying. At times this article was very persuasive in an aggressive way. However, it had strong points that supported the pro-life movement. The pro-abortion article was more on what pro-abortion is and its history. It did not make a good persuasive article. Rather, it brought up the issue of abortion and let the reader decide which is better, pro-life or pro-choice.
