I have nothing against abortions if it’d to save the life of the mother, or if the child would be born with major life altering birth defects. I just believe that, if you really don’t want kids, then use abstinence.

If you believe in abstinence, then I'm sure you understand that there should be exceptions for rape as well. The mother did use abstinence.

Both. And, for that matter, to protect the church from itself. When there's no separation between church and state, the church tends to get more involved in politics. There's a lot of problems with that, but one of the more concerning ones to me is that people will completely leave the church because of political disagreements that shouldn't be all that important to the church (culture wars). It's a fairly common problem in Germany, at least from my experience, and I think it should be avoided as much as possible.
