It's just a good question. I know a few girls that are Catholic and made the abortion choice. It makes no sense to me. I am pro choice and I don't believe in the Easter God. But I'm just curious to see what people think. :)

YES! Any sin, even the worst, can be repented of.
I highly recommend looking into PROJECT RACHEL, a Catholic group that works with Abortion survivors and others who are hurting from the activities of abortion.

If God 'hated' anything, anything at all, do you think that He, with his eternal almighty power, would allow it to exist? Geez, people, don't you realize how small and insignificant you are? God does not need to you do his dirty work, so quit bitching. God is love with a capital L, and no matter what we do, as long as there is love in our hearts, we are a part of him, and he will love us forever. The world is so much bigger than everyone thinks. These yes/no answers are garbage. We have been blessed (or cursed) with free will for a reason. Why would God give us that if we were all supposed to think, act, and live the same, sinless way?
Not that I'm religious, but damn, people. Thank God I have the choice to kick you in the nuts and walk away.

If they repent yes, if not hopefully they choose God at death; you could be the worst sinner in the world and if you say your sorry at death you can still get into heaven after some purification, if they don't repent or choose God at death, they still have a murder on their souls a mortal sin sadly they might not get to heaven.
A true Catholic won't get an Abortion

I think sometimes parents who are religious are so strict and have no understanding that when a Christian girl finds herself in trouble, she could be terrified about their reactions. I used to know a family whose parents were like this. I don't think God wants parents to be so tense and strict that their daughters have to make this terrible choice. However, we don't know what truly goes on in these girls' hearts, and if they are grieving for the choice they made and ask God to forgive them, HE will. He will also hold them and comfort them through this time. He doesn't want His babies to be aborted, but He IS forgiving and forgiving.
Anyway, that is how I see it. If they repent, and I mean TRULY repent, God will know it is real, and yes they are forgiven and will get into Heaven.

What a double edges sword question.
Catholics by design of the man made church do not believe in accepting Jesus Christ into their hearts and submitting their lives to him. They do not belive in being baptized as a public showing of an inward change.
SO , if the young lady in question has never been saved, then yes no matter what the sin, she will reside in hell for eternity.
IF she has been saved, (and I do know some catholics that have read their bibles and have done this, but continue to worship at a catholic church so as not to offend their families) she can ask forgiveness as soon as she feels true regret at the sin, and decides never to take that course of action again.

YES - unequivocally. Redemption is always possible for anyone - nobody is cut off from the saving possibilities of Christ.
The Catholic church has a mission called "Project Rachel" which is specifically designed to minister to women who have participated in an abortion.

God loves these young girls and will offer them the chance to enter heaven. If they do not continue to support the pro life side of the equation, they will go to heaven. If however they take the pro life stance and try to bring others to that evil side, they will not enter heaven.

Yes. Please realize that religion is MAN-made. Don't take that as your final judge. Abortion is the most difficult decision to make for a woman - NO ONE on this earth has a right to judge what is right for you. I am a recovering Catholic - I don't invest in the shame and self-hatred that "religion" ingrained in me.

As long as she realizes she has murdered and by doing so she has separated herself from God. She must be personally sorry for her sin, ask God to forgive her, and go to confession for spiritual guidance as well. She also must be cleansed in purgatory before entering heaven.

God has the final say in who goes to heaven. The bible says a child is a gift from God. The sixth commandment is thou shalt not kill. Abortion is murder according to God's word.
It's not for me or any one else to judge who goes to heaven. We can only point to what God has to say in His Holy Word, the holy bible.
