Abortion & The Early Church
The sadness I feel over the abortion epidemic in America has intensified as I spend time with and bond with my 3 week old son.
Abortion is not a new epidemic. Abortions have been occurring for thousands of years. Several years ago, in my Early Church History course in seminary, I wrote a lengthy research paper on the Early Church’s response to abortion in the Greco-Roman world. The early Christians provided a comprehensive critique and response to the practice of abortion, the likes of which had never been seen. You might appreciate reading this research paper (I received an A on it). Download abortion_the_early_church
Justin, thanks for this. Great paper.
Can you post it in a more readable format? Not sure what this is but it comes up pretty weird in my browser. Doesn’t have a file suffix so I’m not sure what type of file it is. Thanks!
Hey Matthew, I don’t know why it’s doing that. It’s a Word document, but for some reason it keeps showing up funny. If you (or anyone else) would like, I could email you the paper as an attachment and that should hopefully go through just fine.
Bingo, that works a treat after I open it in word (you could just rename the file to have .doc at the end once downloaded from the blog it works fine.)
