Ok, I will try to unclog your brain.
Capital punishment. The key word here is PUNISHMENT. A person did a horrific act against another person and is punished by having his or her lights
turned out. They took action against another human, and by extension, against society as a whole. Society decides to remove that person from the
planet and send their soul to God for judgment.
Abortion. A baby is alive in the mother's womb. The baby is about to be born and has their entire future ahead of him or her. It an entire future
in which the baby becomes a contributing member of society. It's an entire lifetime of love, happiness, having children, raising a family, and
having the potential to make a positive contribution in the world. Those who are anti-abortion feel that the mother of this baby could bear the
responsibility of being inconvenienced by brining the child into the world so that the child has a chance to live out its life.
Those who are anti-abortion do not feel that the lifetime of the child is less valuable than a few months of having the mother inconvenienced. Those
who are anti-abortion feel that society has an obligation to protect the right to life of the child.
Now I'm not saying I agree or disagree entirely with any of the above, but it might help you understand the answer to the question you asked.
