There seems to be no legal or religous document that supports your statements, which is no surprise to me.

Not much is gained from aborting a fetus and it is a waste of life. That doesen't mean it can or should be stopped. Young people don't want to waste 9 months of their lives being pregnant and at the same time, deal with a mess of paperwork. Adoption is an option, but it won't be for long after every child is forced to come to term, the system would be overwelmed. With invetro-fertilization becoming better and more popular, soon the main demand for adoption will come from same-sex couples. So unless you want to start habouring mass numbers of kids in big shelters, abortion should be maintained.
