Novelty in the Scientific Approach Permits a New Way of Considering Issues Surrounding Abortion and the Social Construct of Reality Theory

Summary/Abstract: At present, the issue of abortion is creating a polarity in many societies; the USA is a prime example, where the 'progressive' left is in a continual battle against the conservative right-wing party. The opinion presented here is that in their articles, scientists are not supposed to become involved in doing 'propaganda' for one position or the other but should look at issues like the Social Construct of Reality Theory and abortion, from a new perspective based on the cutting edge of scientific thinking and research that is both interdisciplinary and, where necessary, includes ancient spiritual wisdom; it is wholistic. A multidisciplinary approach that draws from multiple fields allows for a more comprehensive understanding of complex issues. Thus, this scientific stance presented here can be considered 'evolutionary within the tapestry of human evolution'. Scientists must also remember that science, in essence, is creative and was once considered philosophy and was taught in tandem with the creative arts, including music; from a systemic point of view, all these disciplines are part of a whole, where the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. The holistic approach does not provide nice, tidy answers regarding right and wrong. However, going beyond binary thinking opens dilemmas, creating new unthought-of ways to contemplate issues, which enables policymakers and the public to make more informed decisions backed by scientific evidence and research.
