Abortion Ethical?

Since everyone creates his or her own meaning, every meaning is equally valid. Today we see Existentialism in abortion when women call themselves “pro-choice”. To them, it makes no difference what the woman decides, only that she makes an authentic and ethical choice. Whatever she chooses to do is right for her. “Pro-choice advocates are not interested in any objective information that might have a posture on the morality of abortion.” (The History of Western Thoughts). Data about the fetal development, facts of abortion and its consequences, and arguments of the sanctity of a human life are all meaningless evidence for a women´s private choice. According to this view of the world, the choice is God. A woman would not consider it ethical or unethical to abort and terminate a human being´s life. If a women wants to abort she is creating her own destiny, therefore she is also responsible for her consequences. Existentialism is based on Post-Modernism. Post-Modernism rejects the idea of an absolute right answer. The same goes with existentialism, your answer would be somehow based on a term called unaided human wisdom, which creates a meaningful validity only for yourself and not for others. In existentialism there is no such thing as right or wrong, in this case the woman decides that good is whatever the individual wants to be good. Using Christian virtue ethics as a guide, it can quite easily be concluded that abortion is wrong. The existentialist does not even struggle with the issue of abortion. To the existentialist, there is no right or wrong with regards to abortion. The existentialists simply do what they do without the help of the outside world. It is absurd for them to even rationalize the morality of an action.
