From what I've seen, almost all people talking about values are pretty religious. I'm not sure I've ever seen someone irreligious talk about cultural values at all. So I'd argue that even though an anti-abortion attitude may not be directly religious, it almost always seems to stem from religion.
This, of course, could be related to where I live.
I do wonder though: what specific cultural values does abortion cause a drop in?

- Abraln 11y agoThe main one I have heard is empathy, but also a drop in selflessness (as in valuing your own discomfort over the potential life inside of you), and commitment (I have heard it linked multiple times to be increase in divorce rates, aka commitments are not treated seriously.) I'm not saying I agree with any or all of these, just I've heard them.
