Recently in Brazil, to allow the abortion to be legally is controversial issue. Even though Brazil is known as one of the largest Catholic countries and as one of the nations forbidding abortion without a reasonable cause for it, the Papal cort and the government of Brazil have different opinions about accepting legal abortion because the government of Brazil is likely to amend its criminal law to accept the legal abortion. So, I would like to summarize an article, published by Ekklesia on 11 May 2007 and written by its staff writers, and offer my opinion about it. The title of this article is "Pope rallies Brazil faithful, but president is unmoved on abortion". According to the article, Pope Benedict XVI basically disagrees with Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, president of Brazil. Lately, the government of Brazil is due to amend the criminal law to enable pregnant women to have an abortion legally. This article states that W.H.O calculated that there were about a million illegal abortions in Brazil in 2006. Because of these illegal abortions, More brazilian women have the serious problem to keeping their health. So the government of Brazil will modify the abortion policy; how ever, the Pope and the Vatican not only dissent it but do their best to put the blocks on legalizing abortion. First the Pope, Benedict XVI, visited Brazil and had a private meeting with president. And then, he addressed many brazilians about disapproving legal abortion through several Catholic conventions such as prayer convention and Latin American bishop’s conference. On the other hand, Jose Gomes Temperao, Health Minister of Brazil, said that religion and politics must be separated and both the Pope and the Vatican had to stop intervening in the debate of the issue. How ever, I consent to banning by the law because it is obviously murder, pregnancy is a kind of bliss from God whether a man and a woman want it or not and legalization of the abortion causes young people to have sex indiscreetly.

First, the abortion is certainly sinful behavior. Although unborn children do not register their births and don't express their emotions to their parents, they feel any emotions like their mothers and have the instinct to live. For example, during a surgical operation to cause abortion, unborn children avoid surgical instruments in order to stay alive in the uterus since they recognize that the instruments will kill them. And from long long time ago to now, many Korean and Chinese pregnant women have been interested in prenatal care which trues to teach unborn children.. They do try not to see bad things, struggle to hear beautiful music, sounds and words like faith, hope or charity and do strive not to behave impolitely because eight mother's feeling, thought and behavior influence on those of an unborn child or thus facts are regarded as a life like existent person. Accordingly, the abortion is not suitable counterplan.

Next, pregnancy is the greatest behavior that the human can do. The Lord give the human particular ability to maintain the human by themselves. It is pregnancy and parturition. All people have the mother and father bearing themselves whether they know who their parents are or not. It is unchangeable law. For instance, please, think about yourself! If your parents did not exist in the world, you wouldn't be able to exist now. And because the greatest person in the world as well as you have just only a biological couple of parents, each individual is as important as person than any other people on the Earth. If you know this fact, you must be concern about unborn children’s as well as born children;s significance. Therefore, prevention of conception rather than abortion is more ethical.

Finally, the acceptance of legal abortion is related to an increase in unmarried sex. Even though the sex between a man and a woman are allowed traditionally when they marry each other, many young people would just enjoy the sex regardless of marrage. In this condition, legal abortion makes young people not consider pregnancies before the sex. And when the woman knows she has the pregnancy, she may decide to have the abortion without the guilty conscience. As a matter of fact, the abortion is sometimes required to save a life-threatened, pregnant women or to recover the normal life of the woman who is assaulted; how ever, this is a special case and is an essential decision in order to protect the woman’s right as a human. Therefore, legal abortion will cause young Brazilians to have more sex rather than protect women's health from illegal abortion.

Now to conclusion, legalizing abortion in Brazil causes Brazilians to have a disturbed conception about the abortion. Even if the pregnancy and childbirth are the greatest luck from the Lord, they are the most momentous roles of the human to maintain our society successively and to keep illegal abortion prevents many young Brazilians from unmarried, distorted sexes, the government of Brazil is trying to legalize the abortion. It is not reasonable, rational solution to protect women's health from illegal abortion. It is just the simplest and the most irresponsible counterplan to threathen women’s health.
