Saint Thomas Aquinas on Religious Vocation



"It seems that no one should persuade, or draw, others to enter religious life" and  "It seems that it is not praiseworthy for someone to enter religious life without the counsel of many people and long previous deliberation." are two statements that Saint Thomas Aquinas deals with in relation to the religious vocation in his works in the Summa Theologiae and Contra Doctrinam Retrahentium. You will find Aquinas fascinating on the topic which can be accessed here on the Paths of Love blog.
