The right can also apply to moral statements. If you believe that you are right (although extreme and a minority) about abortion

I don't know if you could properly call my belief extreme it is a minority one but it is a large minority. Extremist is a fuzzy word in certain contexts. One more reason why I would prefer words that more specifically describe a certain position or action.

As for the more general question of right and wrong in a moral or philosophical context, this thread has all ready had a long conversation on that topic. In my opinion there is a right or wrong in such contexts but it can not be demonstrated in ways that everyone will accept.
