The Consequences of Abortion

According to Catholic answers, this is only half true. Aquinas did say an unborn baby receives a soul 40 or 80 days after conception depending on gender but he also said abortion is a violation of natural law and is always wrong. The point I'm trying to make here is that because Thomas Aquinas was relying and understandably so on an outdated, inaccurate Aristotelian model of biology it had spiritual consequences. It has consequences that redound to the present day.
