→The Arguments
'''[[Abortion]]''' (sometimes called ''infanticide''), is closely tied to [[atheist]]isc and [[evolution]]ary world views, and is simply a logical extension of their beliefs that [[human]] [[life]] is nothing special. The idea that human life is very much like [[animal]] life justifies to [[atheist]]s the [[kill]]ing of their unborn [[children]].

==The Arguments==
== Atheistic evolution and abortion ==
Humans are believed by [[atheist]]s to be completely mortal beings, with no immortal component (a soul). Being only more creative animals, there is no reason not to abort unwanted children.

Evolutionists further say that the [[world]] is overpopulated and that, in order to survive and flourish in this world, people must avoid reproducing excessively. However, since most atheists expect no [[afterlife]] (32% of [[American atheism|American atheists]] and agnostics believe in an afterlife of some kind. See: [[Atheism and life after death]]), they presume that earthly life should be enjoyed to the full. If something "inconvenient" like and unwanted [[pregnancy]] takes place, it should simply be "taken care of" as easily as possible. <br />
