  Abortion here refers to the deliberate termination of a pregnancy (induced abortion) – a medical procedure to end a pregnancy and cause the death of the fetus (developing baby). It is a situation whereby the fetus is being intentionally and forcefully removed by several methods. This excludes the minute cases of unintentional abortions, eg. still births, miscarriages etc Abortion isn’t a recent act; it has started since the 12th century. Young women of that time agitated for freedom to terminate their babies when they could no longer carry them. The first time it started, abortion was legal as far as it is done before the baby "kicks"; that's between the 7 th and 8 th month of development. Herbal mixtures were mixed by some experienced midwives to either terminate the baby or induce abortion. Most of the women at that time died during the process, but recently, medical knowledge has increased and there are several successful abortion cases. Based on the recent stati...

Before we can justify or refute the idea of civil disobedience, we must understand the concept. It is the refusal to comply with certain laws considered unjust as a peaceful form of political protest. Also, it’s the refusal to obey certain laws or governmental demands for the purpose of influencing legislation or government policy characterized by the employment of such non violent techniques as boycotting and non payment of taxes. So, civil disobedience is just like saying, because government gave a certain law and it’s not favorable or sounds “injustice” to some set of people, they will intentionally and non-violently disobey either that law or another law, just to make the government know their non-conformity with that particular law. For instance, during childhood days, when mummy disciplines children for a wrong done, which the children think doesn’t really require her whipping them, some children would go inside the house and hide somewhere. And when it’s time to eat, and mummy ...

  "Kaima, you need to stop crying. You've barely touched your meal".  " For how long will you continue to wallow in tears?" Lamide consoled Kaima. "Stop crying you say? Is it that easy? After all my expectations, I get paid in a horrible way, and you say, I should stop crying?" Kaima said, still crying.   "Yes, dear. You have to pick up yourself and move on. It's definitely not going to be easy, that I know. But then, you need to move on. You've got a bright future ahead of you" Lamide said.   "It's not easy moving on, Lamide. It's not! "Many years after my marriage; many years of waiting and trusting God. After so many years of soaking my pillows with tears".  " After so many years of being mocked, God finally answered me, but, just in a blink, my world crumbles again". It's not going to be easy moving on" Kaima cried out. "Kaima, only God understands why the baby had to die. You know ...

  Have you heard of a man named Socrates? Socrates was an ancient Greek philosopher from Athens (born 470 BCE and died 399 BCE) who is credited as a founder of Western philosophy and the first moral philosopher of the Western ethical tradition of thought. He was just a natural man and a standard for philosophers . A man named Meletus once charged Socrates to court for impiety on account that he did not acknowledge the Greek gods and goddesses. Socrates was a rational being and not a religious person. On his way to court, he met with a man called Euthyphro. They got into a conversation and Socrates came to know that Euthyphro was also charging his own father to court for impiety because his father tied up a slave and left him to starve to death and that was because that slave killed his fellow slave. Now Socrates was in dare need of someone to tell what piety means so he could defend himself in court. Euthyphro saw it as impiety for his father to take a life. Euthyphro’s f...
