But relatively few people believe this. Maybe 30% of the country, and even then it is unclear how earnestly they do because most people who are staunchly anti-abortion support or use other techniques which functionally destroy embryos and fetuses.

For example, IVF would create and then kill dozens of children for every successful birth. But IVF is extremely popular.

It is unclear to me why 30% of the country gets to impose their morals on 70% of the country. It is clearly a moral argument either way, there are compelling moral issues about removing bodily autonomy and consent from women even beyond the medically preventable fatalities which will occur. Then there are the moral issues with rape and incest victims, being required to give birth, etc.

Do the 30% have a far superior moral compass than the 70% who have examined the same complicated issue and come to a different conclusion?

Totally agree, I'm more arguing devils advocate than anything. I think a minority imposing laws on the majority is undemocratic.

I just also think it's worth trying to actual meet people where they are, most genuinely think we're killing babies and want to stop that, and to be fair we have no idea when a human life starts. I'm just really over the villainization of people who are just concerned.
