the closest to you are are allowed more

no it can't

Not individuals will survive in that society, byt the society itself could.

it was proven with religion

and it's success

Hm?

But societies have had abortion, and this doesn't seem to be destroying them.

moral codes are beneficial if not essential

Some moral codes allow abortion though.

and they hurt society

Like mine.

Do they?

Hurt by what metric?

but to a lesser extend than others and most people don't care

by what matric?

Yes do they shorten the lifetime of society's, reduce happiness?

What metric

How do we quantify the amount of hurt for society?

longevity success and happiness

more children bring more success

this happened in Europe and will happen in Africa

that has yet to be demonstrated. And I can say that it hurts society to ban abortion by my own metrics.

why?

child is far more likely to be beneficial

Because it does. My metric is "freedom from unwanted pregnancy"

I might value this more than any potential venefit

your matric isn't societal matric

Sure it is

if your moral code says murder is ok

The degree to which people in a society can get an abortion is a societal metric.

I put you in jail after acting on it

Your definition of murder.

most

No not the dictionary's

people just add an exception

Murder is usually defined as a legal term.

Unlawful killing.

I don't care if murder is ok in my system.

laws are meant to facilitate these things not make them

I can live with that, so can society.

that's why most laws have been based on religion through history
