In Fanatic Saudi Arabia, during Ramadan, the religious police beat up the citizens if they were found eating. Now most of us think of such action as reprehensible? You happened to think otherwise, at least according to your response? I still maintain that my morality will guide me to do the right thing, and not force my morality on you is civilized way of coexistence.
So you are trying to prove by example of a bad law that all laws are bad?
Maybe you were incapable of detecting the point to what I wrote: Abortion kills someone else. Therefore, it is an issue of PUBLIC morality, and can be dealt with . You can go masturbate all you want, and that's no-one's business. You kill a baby, and that's everyone's business.
Christian morality holds that it is immoral to rape people. Should we legalize rape because government should not legislate morality? Some feminists claim that mothers should have the right to kill their babies because they haven't come into the world yet for anyone to love. Does that mean I can kill a homeless druggie I come across?
The law in Saudi Arabia would be unconstitutional in America because it forces someone else to live according to the practices of a religion they do not subscribe to; religion is the primary state interest involved. Religion is not the primary state interest involved in abortion; protection of the right to life of the unborn is.
You may hold that it is your religion (or lack thereof) that informs you that black people do not have souls. (This was an argument made for the morality of slavery.) That your religion differs with the state's objectives does not mean that you have the freedom to kill, mistreat, enslave, or in any other way deny the civil rights of black people.
Likewise, you may not believe that unborn babies have souls. I, as a voter, believe they do, and it is the legal history of the United States that they do at least after the first trimester. Therefore, I am correct to protect unborn babies from your false beliefs and the actions you take because of those beliefs.
If you burn a building, and there are people in that building who die, they will convict you for murder.
