That makes sense, Jack. I think you and I agree that it really shouldn't be impossible to legalize abortion in most nations. There is an extremist element in the Catholic Church that is as vehemently against abortion as the NRA is in support of guns in the U.S. And both groups use vicious tactics to press their will on the rest of us.

I think those strongholds can be broken, but not by direct confrontation - and certainly not by inflating the issue by making the majority into an enemy. If the majority population of a nation is Catholic, you're not going to legalize abortion by insulting or making an enemy of Catholicism.
