But why should abortion be outlawed, stemcell research be curtailed/banned, gay rights denied because someones moral convictions say it is wrong?

No one will be forced to get an abortion if we leave R v W alone. No one would be forced to get an abortion, give up their embryos or partake in stem cell treatment if stem cell reserach is allowed to continue. No one would be forced into a gay marriage and it will not weaken straight marriages.

My moral convictions say allow the choice to have an abortion, to allow stem cell research to continue and to allow gay couples to marry. Those convictions aren't harming anyone, nor are they denying anyone anything.

Those whose moral convictions say to outlaw abortion, ban stem cell research and prohibit gay couples to marry is [taken from iSm because he said it so well] denying rights to gay AMERICANS, to deny rights to female AMERICANS and to dampen treatment potential for seriously ill AMERICANS.
