And again, this is the actual logical view, if you follow the supernatural idea of conception, that an instant after conception God endows the zygote with a soul and it acquires all the rights of a human being.

This is the actual GOP party plank, and one that Romney supports. A personhood amendment, defining human life as beginning at conception, would indeed mean that they were endorsing the idea that the pregnancy was god’s will. This is what the GOP actually holds as a value. This guy is not an exception, he is only speaking a little more plainly and honestly than most in the GOP.
