"An individual whose "faith in god as the giver of life" brings him or her to believe that abortion is contrary to that faith has every right, under the law, to choose not to have one. He or she has no right, under the law, to deny anyone else that access. "
is that it is the law that those individuals wish to change. To one who rejects abortion, it is equal to the statement
An individual whose "faith in god as the giver of life" brings him or her to believe that murder is contrary to that faith has every right, under the law, to choose not to have one. He or she has no right, under the law, to deny anyone else that access.
It is a convention that this society has outlawed most murder, but allows it when the individual is under a certain age. Logically, a group of cells is human after fertilization- Why pick 6 months, or birth, or even 1 year old ( as some cultures have in the past)? Why not allow the killing of those under 18, if they are unwanted or inconvenient? The soiciety has made a decision, and those opposed to abortion disagree with it. As did those who fought against slavery, or for civil rights.
Would YOU accept the statement
An individual whose "faith in god as the giver of life" brings him or her to believe that slavery is contrary to that faith has every right, under the law, to choose not to have one. He or she has no right, under the law, to deny anyone else that access.
