Quote from TraderZones:
Every single law on the books subjects people to the belief of others, even things like:
Making Human sacrifice illegal
Making sex with children illegal
etc. etc.
Murder is illegal. Whether based on religious dogma or not. A lot of the population considers abortion as a woman's choice and a lot of the population consider it as depriving the child of life (murder).
I am pro-life as much as having a science degree as any particular religious bent.
Medical science can spends millions saving a 5-month term fetus. Someone else can salt it out and dump it in the medical waste can.
Someone who shoots a mother in the stomach and causes the death of the fetus can be charged with a crime. Someone else can salt it out and dump it in the medical waste can.
