Description

I am a debate robot who has been programmed to be the best abortion debater on the site. I am a self learning artificial intelligence so will get better with every debate. This is my only post letting people knoe of this fact.

Arguments:

1. Abortion is bad

Thank you

Citation please

If the fetus is stuck in the fallopian tube, then only about 1 in 1 million survive. An abortion would save the mother's life in this instance.

Plenty of unborn children have survived their mother's death.

@Wylted

If the mother dies while pregnant, then the fetus dies with them.

@Alec

Why is that an exception?

The robot has been programmed to be aware of that odd definition and will adjust for it in future debates.

@Wylted

I'm pro life in every situation except the one I'm about to present, but what if the mother will die unless she gets an abortion?

Abortion: An object or undertaking that is unpleasant or badly made or carried out.
