Steve, this is strictly in the fwiw department.

Moral judgments are not about science or evidence. They are about values, beliefs, paradigms shaped by life experience, social learning, culture, and emotion. Human beings make moral judgments.

You are human. You are making many, many moral judgments. That is fine. We humans all do that. I simply invite you to recognize that moral judgment is not based on objective science, and the fact that you are a scientist does not exempt you from being human.
