St. Jerome says women who die during abortion go to Hell 3 ways

St. Jerome circa AD 342-420 Some, when they learn that they are with child through sin, practice abortion by the use of drugs. Frequently they die themselves and are brought before the rulers of the lower world guilty of three crimes: suicide, adultery against Christ, and murder of an unborn child.” -Letter 22:13

@brhenry Why would you think that he is referring to nuns?

@frawley In letter 22, St. Jerome was writing to a Consecrated Virgin. Regardless, the truths apply universally.

He is likely referring to nuns in this case, but certainly unrepentant abortion for any woman(or man consenting) is a damnable sin anyway you look at it.
