Abortion - the Life Taking Decision
The debate about whether to have an abortion or not to have an abortion has been going on for many years. One of the problems is deciding when "life" actually begins.

Condoms, creams and diaphragms are available either from a physician or over the counter in drugstores. The best way to keep away from having abortion, especially in unmarried couples, is abstinence. If one were abstinent until she is ready to have a child then there would not be any problem dealing with this death defining issue.
