The Supreme Court even recognized the polarizing nature of the abortion issue in its opinion: One's philosophy, one's experiences, one's exposure to the raw edges of human existence, one's religious training, one's attitudes toward life and family and their values, and the moral standards one establishes and seeks to observe, are all likely to influence and to color one's thinking and conclusions about abortion.

It remains a hotly debated topic because someone's opinion on it depends on their view of the world, and when they believe life begins. Related Cases
