I took that to refer to how strongly many feel about not allowing anyone to have an abortion and how much of a sin that is to them, but once a baby is born it seems for some people that the whole philosophy of protecting the child is tossed out. That is horrible that a baby is made to suffer and die when treatment could make a difference, but the irony is that often groups with strong anti-intervention beliefs also preach how sinful abortion is. It is sad and makes no sense to me personally. I didn't personally take it to mean anything but that.
