how about "supple" instead of firm. or how about "indifference to fetuses is different from my attitiude towards babies, which is generally favorable yet the idea that they should come at the expense of someones well-being is exteremly questionable." how about "that's a dumb thing to say"
outside of all that, there's a flaw in your casual dismissal there, and it's this:
"pre-conceived"
it's an easy word to say (almost as much as "pretentious"), but it's wrong at this point. it's all conceived. there's nothing 'pre' about it. it's been done again and again and again that we can have a pretty good idea of what the bullshit is about at this point if we can stop dancing around it for two seconds.
"nullify"...
