Let's talk Abortion

First of, Hi, i'm new here and i have no idea if you debate such topics here on AR forum and whether it should be a religious vs atheist debate or an atheist-atheist discussion. Help the newby.

1-So i'm intrested why the majority of Christians / Muslims are against abortion. My idea is that the less babies there are, the less brainwashed adults there will be and religion needs people. So why do you think religion is against abortion?

2-I'm intrested also in your opinion about abortion too. I seem to have made up my mind up to the 27th week (by the time the feutus' brain connections develops the ability to process pain), that abortion is definetly okay. But after that, i can't seem to decide, i know abortion decisions don't usually happen this late in pregnancy, but, hypothetically, if you have a perfectly sane baby 27+ weeks old, would you abord it? My opinion is just swallow the 11 weeks left and give it up for adoption, but what if you have to, is it ethical? Maybe anesthesia?

I'm assuming that pain and the amount of suffering is the basis of my moral compass

And no i'm not a pregnant teen, i'm a very curious MAN.
