Sorry, murder is society's business. Sorry you can't understand that.
Fetuses aren't people, and calling it "murder" won't work if society won't go along. Murder laws are enforceable because you have near 100% agreement they should be. We can prosecute murders because police will investigate, witnesses will testify and juries will convict murderers.
Police couldn't be bothered to investigate abortions even before Roe.
People would never know if their neighbor had an abortion and would generally mind their own business.
As for juries. If I ever found myself on an abortion jury, I promise you, I'd do everything I could to tank that trial.
You see, we already have a FINE example of a country where they have laws like you want. It's the Philippines!
Abortion is completely illegal except in cases of threats to the woman's life.
And they have anywhere from 500,000 to 800,000 abortions every year. A higher abortion rate than the US! they also have close to a million abandoned children.
So, um Hard Pass on your religious crazy.
