More details to this question:
If he does not want the female to have the baby yet she decides to anyway, then why can he not somehow relinquish his rights? Both parties were not in agreement to have the child although they did have consensual sex (contraception should have been used)? After the child is born and paternity is established, why is he financially responsible based on her choice to have the child?

Because as a matter of policy, if you create a life, you help support it. If you want to avoid financial responsibility, use more effective protection, and do not have relations with anyone who doesn't believe the same regarding creating life. Easy peasy, provided one thinks logically and not lustfully,
