Gospel of Life

This document took my breath away. It is absolutely beautifully written, articulate, and ultimately inspiring. Though I am not Christian (I read Evangelium vitae in the course of an undergraduate thesis in bioethics), the teachings and beliefs truly resonated with me at a heartfelt level.

Originally, I didn't get my product in time. After contacting the seller, was told that it was sent back to him because the address got smeared in the rain. But, he ended up giving me a full refund, and sent it speed delivery soon thereafter.

The Gospel of Life (Evangelium Vitae) To be read over and over and over again. Beautiful! I want to read everything John Paul II has written. He was a genius and definitely a saint. I love him.

The ideas, the laws in favor of abortion and euthenasia are examined briefly but intently in this small book. People of all religions and of no religion will learn views of life that are important to recall. All human beings of whatever health are shown to be important for all of us. People who have disabilities, even severe disabilities are shown to give to us all; the book shows us this concept that we have either forgotten or rejected. The concept of Evil is discussed and I believe that even the non-religious can find it hard to reject as simply an "outdate idea that we 'know' isn't real" after reading these pages. This book is written in for all people, in a style that caused me to re-read parts, not because I didn't understand it after the first time but because of the richness and wisedom I read the first time.

It's difficult to believe that this monumental encyclical has only had one reviewer! This is a life changing & culture changing masterpiece from the late Pope John Paul II.
