However, there is not a single part of me that believes abortions, even late term, should be illegal because the state shouldn't have the right to dictate what a person does and does not do with their own person.

In this example you have an actual living person and a "probable" person and you have to weigh one against the other.

Similarly, I find anti-vaxxers ill-informed and a menace to society, but I'm not prepared to jail them for that position.
