>They don't care why. The act itself is morally unjustifiable.
I think this very similar to how people view the act of murder. This is nothing special about abortion. They just view it as a crime.
>There is no room for compromise in a belief system like that.
Exactly. That is why, listening does nothing. In the article, the author felt very warm and fuzzy but look at the result of that encounter. The woman went on believing what she already believed and the author went on believing what he already believed. So what's the point?
