I won't accept any argument regarding human morality (and especially our laws) that's founded in an emotional response.

I want them to be measured decisions where the pros and cons of the actions and their results are carefully weighed.

This is complete BS. There are tons of laws based on emotional reactions to what is right and wrong. Its like you said. If a woman cannot support a baby and the foster care system is so bad, should she be allowed to murder her newborn? Most I assume would say no, though this is an emotional response to what we believe is right and wrong. By most of the people's logic in this topic she'd actually be doing him a favor, but still most would not support this.

No, it's not BS.

Yes, there exist laws that are based on emotional reactions. That, however, has nothing to do with what I said. Which is that laws should not be based on emotional reactions.
