J. “A Defense of Abortion”1.      What is Thompson’s central thesis in this argument?2.      What is the analogy of the diseased violinist intended to prove?3.      Why does Thompson think that the right to life is not unrestricted?Steinbock, B. “Why Most Abortions Are Not Immoral”1.       What is the potentiality principle? Why does Steinbock argue it is problematic?2.       Why does Steinbock think Marquis’ argument is not successful in establishing the immorality of abortion?3.       What is the interests view?
