Two authors debate when abortion becomes morally wrong, presenting arguments for conception vs. fetal viability as the ethical cutoff point.
Longer summary
This post is an entry to the 2019 Adversarial Collaboration Contest, where two authors with differing views on abortion debate when during fetal development abortion becomes morally wrong. The authors first review data on abortion rates, pregnancy risks, and socioeconomic impacts. Icerun argues that abortion becomes wrong at conception based on the 'Future Like Ours' argument, while BlockofNihilism contends it's acceptable until fetal viability or minimal neurological activity. They present their arguments, rebut each other's positions, and ultimately reach different conclusions while agreeing on the importance of reducing abortion need through better support systems.
