I don't even care about abortion specifically as it will never come up in my life, but I have never been in favor of religious beliefs dictating law.
sure you do. you support laws because of a moral framework. that moral framework may come from being freedom minded, christian minded, progressive minded, climate minded, giving (welfare) minded, LGBT minded etc.
that would be akin to saying "you shouldn't have opinions on lgbt policy because you are in fact lgbt," or "you shouldn't let your race dictate your opinion because you're white/black."
if you're saying you just don't like the moral framework of christianity, say that. don't say you don't like religious beliefs dictating law.

It's a little depressing that more people don't understand this. "We shouldn't legislate morality" lets me know up front that I'm dealing with a shallow thinker.
