    But how can you not interfere with the lives of other people? Shold I go live in the woods? If I am a private company, how much agency do I need to have to avoid interfering with the lives of other people?

    Interesting word you have there, “pluralistic”. Do you reckon catholics will have a say in what laws are passed?

      Catholics do have a say in what laws are passed, tho. And it’s kinda intended.

      Basically, they’re outnumbered by those who think abortions are ok, yet it’s not good enough for them.

        There is a difference between accepting the results of a democratic process(which they do, I suppose) and doing abortions yourself even though you don’t legally have to and believe it to be immoral. Your judgmental attitude is misplaced.

          Quit whining. Many catholic-majority countries have legal abortion. If church-controlled institutions don’t want to provide the full spectrum of healthcare, they have two options: fold operations altogether or relinquish church control. If you are curious what that looks like, come visit us in Quebec.

      Follow the law.

      Democracy means democracy.
