That's like saying you cant stop murder, so dont legislate.
You cant stop any crime, so dont legislate.
You don't have half the population wanting murder to be legal. That's the difference.
The laws are set up for society to function best according to the desires of the majority as a group. Nearly everyone wants murder to be illegal, so it is.
Regarding abortion, a huge part of the population thinks that it's not only NOT immoral, but that a woman should have a right to it.
When half the population is demanding a basic right to murder, while the other half wants it abolished for religious reasons, then your point would hold up. Until then, it's garbage.

I'd be really interested to see what the result of a national vote to ban abortions after the first trimester would be. I might be wrong, but I suspect it would pass overwhelmingly.

Agreed.
I have very personal views based on what life is and when it begins that are completely removed from religion.
But, it is a personal conviction that may or may not fit the majority view.
I hate the incest rape of a juvenile argument, as it is just poor debate tactics. It is an extreme, very isolated incident meant to appeal to emotion. So, I am not talking about that extreme.
That said, I would support the "women's right to choose" if state's required a best attempt at identification of the father and his consent as well. Further, any man that does not want a child while the woman chooses to keep it should have every "right" to waive his obligation to the child.
Personally, I feel a man should live up to his obligations in all things, killing conceived human life is wrong, but, above all, the rules should be balanced for both partners. The right to abortion or choice to bear a child is solely a woman's choice at the moment and that is wrong.
