An Imaginary Confession: The aborted Child and redemptive Love
A fantastic article. I have thought or spoken just about every word in this imaginary confession. The first priest I confessed my abortion to did not absolve me. It was not a good experience. I have carried the feelings from it around for years. The Church teaching then and now is so vastly different and now I understand why that priest said what he did to me, but the scars remain. Every priest and seminarian should have this at the ready.
