Early Christianity (1st-6th centuries)

The Didache, a 1st-century Christian text, condemns abortion as a form of murder.
Early Church Fathers, such as Tertullian, Athenagoras, and Clement of Alexandria, wrote against abortion as a sin.
The Council of Elvira (305 AD) and the Council of Ancyra (314 AD) prohibited abortion.
Middle Ages (7th-15th centuries)

The Church’s teaching on abortion was influenced by Aristotelian philosophy, which held that the soul was infused into the fetus at a later stage of development, but abortion was still condemned as it always has been.
The 13th-century Pope Gregory IX condemned abortion as a grave sin.
The 14th-century Pope John XXII declared that abortion was a mortal sin.
Reformation and Counter-Reformation (16th-17th centuries)

The Catholic Church’s teaching on abortion became more consistent and absolute, with Pope Sixtus V declaring all abortion murder in 1588.
The Council of Trent (1545-1563) reaffirmed the Church’s opposition to abortion.
Modern Era (18th-20th centuries)

The 19th-century Catholic Church began to emphasize the sanctity of human life from conception, with Pope Pius IX declaring that “the life of every human being, from the moment of conception, is sacred and inviolable.”
The 20th-century Catholic Church continued to condemn abortion as a grave moral evil, with Pope John Paul II’s encyclical “Evangelium Vitae” (1995) reaffirming the Church’s teaching on the sanctity of human life.
