FOURTH: The fundamental question is: does the fetus/baby have moral status? If so then the choice for abortion would have to be rejected, if not then abortion might be a choice for the couple. So what you are doing when you identify each person’s moral theory is determining where they stand on the question of the moral status of the fetus/baby. You need to define the theory you think relates to the person (referencing the theory) and then you need to explain the theory, and then you need to explain the action they would take as they apply the theory.
Based on “Case Study: Fetal Abnormality” and other required topic study materials, write a 1000-1500word reflection that answers the following questions:
1. What is the Christian view of the nature of human persons, and which theory of moral status is it compatible with? How is this related to the intrinsic human value and dignity?
2. Which theory or theories are being used by Jessica, Marco, Maria, and Dr. Wilson to determine the moral status of the fetus? What from the case study specifically leads you to believe that they hold the theory you selected?
3. How does the theory determine or influence each of their recommendations for action?
4. What theory do you agree with? Why? How would that theory determine or influence the recommendation for action?
I would encourage you to do some research on the Moral Status of the Fetus if you do not find enough information in the reading material for the week.
