We are outraged at drunk drivers who kill innocent people in car accidents, but many of us have driven under the influence.

We are appalled that people would be sexually irresponsible and produce children out of wedlock, but many of us have acted similarly. That is true, but it is not his physical body, nor his private actions that we are supposed to respect and appreciate.
