Not agreeing to disagree isn't the same as cutting someone off from your life, even for those issues. There are multiple issues within those issues that are extreme. For example, I'm pro-choice, but the cutoff for me is probably around the 24 week mark. Pushing for more than that, to me, is extreme, unless we're talking outlier situations, which would go on a case-by-case basis.

Based on that, many people who are extreme in their belief would certainly cut me out of their life for not supporting late-term abortion.

This all-or-nothing approach is just irrational. It's not a good match friendship-wise.
