Ep 69 The moral case for abortion. Kathy Sheridan meets Ann Furedi

The Women's Podcast - A podcast by The Irish Times - Thursdays

Categories:

For the past 13 years pro-choice activist Ann Furedi has been CEO of the British Pregnancy Advisory Service providing abortion services to women. She talked to host Kathy Sheridan about the view, set out in her book The Moral Case for Abortion, that true respect for human life and individual conscience demands that we respect a woman’s right to decide. While advocating the use of euphemism-free language around the issue - she talks about 'killing' and 'ending of life' - she also believes that a woman’s right to a termination has moral foundations. This fresh perspective on abortion will interest both pro- and anti-choice individuals and organisations.
