1. How does Spiritism evaluate needless abortion?
2. Three mistakes can be pointed out in criminal abortion. What are they?

4. What diseases can be contracted due to criminal abortion?

Criminal abortion is the denial of love
1. Abortion is, according to the Superior Spirits, a heinous crime. Killing a child inside the mom’s belly is a murder. A mother or whoever it is will commit a crime whenever they take a child’s life before its birth, because it would stop the spirit who would reincarnate to pass through the various probations for his own development.
2. We can point out three mistakes made by these mothers. First: to stop the spirit to reincarnate, it means, to progress. Second: to reject a son who maybe represents the tool that God gave to parents in order to help them progress, through taking care, resigning, worrying about the kid. Third: not complying with the commandment “Thou shalt not kill” and in this case also an act of cowardice, since the Spirit is helpless.
3. Criminal abortion is the denial of love. Overwhelm the future life, full of hope; prevent the soul from coming back to our world; deny the Spirit the chance to readjust represents, in any place, situation and time, heinous crime, with lasting and painful consequences for the human psyche.
4. The earthly humanity struggles through various ways. There are homicides, robberies, murders, diseases, hunger, tragedies, ignorance, and wars, what make the world to live constant social convulsions. A crime, though, is more painful, if it is committed with pleasure, in the silence of home or the Nature itself – a shocking crime, because the victim has no voice to beg for mercy nor arms to react. We refer to criminal abortion, in which unaware parents determine the death of their own offspring, denying them the chance to receive the blessing of life.
Abortion incurs mysterious diseases
5. In many countries, needless abortion – because a necessary one is the therapeutical abortion, the one who saves the life of the mother – is helped by the law, but, according to the Spiritist Doctrine, abortion has no justification before God, but in rare cases as the ones we cited above, in which the honest and aware doctor understands that the continued pregnancy may harm the health of the mother-to-be. Only the doctor is able to say so.
6. According to Spiritist teachings, criminal abortion is one of the main causes of mysterious diseases and psyche problems that occupy many departments of hospitals and prisons. The woman who promotes it or makes any sort of movements towards it is forced to, by irrevocable laws, to suffer depressing alterations in the Genesis center of her soul, making her prone to painful sicknesses, such as metritis ([1]), vaginitis ([2]), metralgia ([3]), uterus problems or cancer, all diseases that can actually kill, demanding the Spirit to be questioned, before the Divine Justice, for the committed crime.
7. So she understands she is alive, but sick and unhappy, because by the memories of the act being played over and over on her mind, through remorse, will suffer for a long time in the region of the sex organs.
8. The woman who willingly corrupted her Genesis center – informs André Luiz in Ação e Reação, pages. 210 and 211 – will receive in the future souls who behave in similar fashion, and she is likely to be mother of suicidals or criminals, regenerating the subtle energies of the persipirit through the sacrifice in which she will dedicate to the miserable children of hers, learning how to pray, to serve well and meditate on the pure and healthy motherhood, that she will finally conquer after all these setbacks.
Abortion can be a closed door to our friends
9. The spiritual consequences of abortion are well explained in the following experience that Suely Caldas Schubert writes in her book Obsessão/Desobs
essão, published in 1981 by the Brazilian Spiritist Federation. In chapter. 9 of the third part, Suely Schubert reports three mediumistic communications related to abortion and its effects.
10. The first one is a doctor who, while incarnated, used to do it regularly. We all know that abortion – except when made to save the mother’s life – is deemed a crime to the eyes of God and there is no justification. The disincarnated doctor seemed extremely troubled, saying he was being haunted by several Spirits. Accusing himself of murderer, he was horrified with his acts. The regret had come to him in the spiritual life; therefore, he was dreading his persecutors, among them some he had killed before.
11. The second communicator was a woman who had died during an abortion. Troubled by the remorse of this action, she would still hate the doctor who performed the operation on her, trying to haunt him now.
12. The third entity to communicate was also a woman who had an abortion in her last life on Earth. As she was poor and fought with many difficulties to provide for the kids, this miserable mother got pregnant again and looked for a way to abort what would be her sixth kid. Once she committed the crime, the regret was terrible and immediate. She had never forgiven herself, thus, suffering twice as much carrying for the rest of her days the burden of remorse. Her existence was long and difficult. She faced all life’s difficulties, and at last, she disincarnated. The spiritual plan had a surprise for her. As she disincarnated, she met up with the rejected son and she got really disappointed to verify she would hold him in high regard, as he was her companion in the past, and would be born in her home to make her days less bitter.
13. Spirit of a certain moral elevation, he had already forgiven her, but she never forgave herself and now, in the spiritual plan, she took in the responsibility of helping people that are likely to make the same mistake, to show them we make our own destiny and abortion, far from being the solution for life’s problems, will in fact worsen our debts, or even close the doors to our best friends.
