If you're pro-life, how far do you take that?

The underlying contention is that there is some harm to an individual which doesn't harm society, but the example refers to a civilization instead..and -is- an example of harming society by harm to individuals....that just so happened to harm the civilization as well.  

I could be less literal, and less specific..and rely on whatever someone thinks is obvious...but......?
