25. Social Practice / F. Life Issues / 3. Abortion
Abortions should be procured before the embryo has acquired life and sensation [Aristotle]
     Full Idea: If an unwanted child is conceived, abortion should be procured before the embryo has acquired life and sensation.
     From: Aristotle (Politics [c.332 BCE], 1335b24)
     A reaction: A salient reminder that ancient people also had to think about the question of abortion. Some cultures seem unbothered by concerns, but not Arfistotle.
