This, yes. If I hold the deep moral conviction, religious or otherwise, that violence against another human being is wrong, I shouldn't for god's sake become a police officer. No one forced these people into healthcare professions, and it's increasingly probable that they began their jobs after abortion became legal, let alone the pill, so fuck their moral convictions. They can go dig ditches, fight fires, write novels, or any number of other things that will never, ever require them to be responsible for another person's health.
I'm apparently having more trouble than I thought I would in not preaching to the choir on this topic.
