Very powerful testimony. One correction—Aquinas believed that abortion even prior to ensoulment was a grave sin. Human life did not begin at 40 days, ensoulment of a human life began then. The good doctor’s speculation about Aquinas’s remorse in the afterlife is wide of the mark, but his story is compelling nonetheless.

After viewing a video of abortions, I cannot come to grip with “CIVILIZED” people feeling comfortable with this hideous, barbaric action as a mother’s “CHOICE”.

Very much worth reading. Compelling. All those millions of lives lost, and still the left votes for abortion in every election. It’s a great national sin that hangs over the country like a dark storm.

“I am called Thomas Aquinas”. Indeed, the name meant nothing to Adasevic. It was the first time he had heard it. The man in black continued: “Why don’t you ask who the children are. Don’t you recognize them?” When the doctor said he didn’t, he replied: “Not true. You know them very well. These are the children you killed while performing abortions”. “How is that possible?” countered Adasevic. “These are grown children. I have never killed born children”. Thomas replied: “Do you not know that here, on this side of the eschaton, children continue to grow?”

I believe it. Of all the Saints while they were still earthly bound (at least that I'm aware of), Thomas Aquinas spoke the most about our state as souls in heaven after death, speculating for instance that most of us would be represented in heaven as the age of 33 (Christ's age at death).

His account really IS chilling. I'm so glad it converted him to the pro-life side. So children continue to grow after death (if the dream was real and truthful). Interesting. It makes sense.
