Catholics and abortion

[floraposte]

Is it possible to have had an abortion in the past (much regretted), yet practice as a catholic and bring up one's future children as catholics?

Gods are supposed to be all-knowing, all-loving and all-forgiving. If other human beings can understand that you felt unable to carry a pregnancy to term,. then surely a god, which is supposeldy a being that is all-knowing and all- loving and ll-forgiving, can understand that.
If it can't understand that, it's not a god worth bothering with.

Daisey, you can go to any church. I would consider finding one that has an attachment to a university as the priest there will be used to dealing with issues like this, rather than be some dinosaur.

This is about forgiving yourself, God has forgiven you (if there was anything to forgive - you and Quootie both sound like victims to me) - you need to know that you are loved and lovable. Still praying. xxx

Just realised how much my post is like Frogs!

hugs and prayer to you both quootie and flora
