I agree: “Can opinions be wrong?” is an unresolved philosophical question. I am of the opinion that they can, and you may disagree with my. Under my philosophical framework your disagreement is not wrong.
However I don’t see the statement “Women have rights to their bodies” as an unresolved political question. I see it as a pretty clear truth, as true as “slavery is wrong and should be illegal”. I have my reasons to believe this is so (which I won’t go into because we are debating whether “everything is political”, not abortion rights). So under my philosophical framework anti-abortion is a wrong opinion to have. And I am certainly not the only person to believe this.
