religion and abortion
Many religious traditions have taken a stance on abortion, and these stances span a broad spectrum as highlighted below.〔(BBC "Religion and Ethics" ) Be aware that these BBC pages do not cover all Protestant, Muslim, Hindu or Buddhist beliefs.〕〔(Patheos Public Square Topic ) Including Buddhist, Muslim, Mormon, and Pagan perspectives in addition to Catholic, Evangelical, Protestant, and Jewish perspectives.〕
==Buddhism==
(詳細はBuddhist view concerning abortion.〔"(Abortion: Buddhism )." ''BBC Religion & Ethics.'' Retrieved January 15, 2008.〕 Some traditional sources, including some Buddhist monastic codes, hold that life begins at conception and that abortion, which would then involve the deliberate destruction of life, should be rejected.〔Harvey, Peter. Introduction to Buddhist Ethics (2000). Cambridge University Press. pg. 311–20〕 Complicating the issue is the Buddhist belief that "life is a continuum with no discernible starting point".〔(Buddhism and Abortion on Patheos )〕 Among Buddhists, there is no official or preferred viewpoint regarding abortion.〔(Buddhism and abortion on BBC Religions )〕
The Dalai Lama has said that abortion is "negative," but there are exceptions. He said, "I think abortion should be approved or disapproved according to each circumstance''."
Inducing or otherwise causing an abortion is regarded as a serious matter in the monastic rules followed by both Theravada and Vajrayana monks; monks and nuns must be expelled for assisting a woman in procuring an abortion.〔 Traditional sources do not recognize a distinction between early- and late-term abortion, but in Sri Lanka and Thailand the "moral stigma" associated with an abortion grows with the development of the fetus.〔 While traditional sources do not seem to be aware of the possibility of abortion as relevant to the health of the mother, modern Buddhist teachers from many traditions – and abortion laws in many Buddhist countries – recognize a threat to the life or physical health of the mother as an acceptable justification for abortion as a practical matter, though it may still be seen as a deed with negative moral or karmic consequences.〔
