Demonic Abortion is a companion edition to Rev. Thomas J. Euteneuer's larger work, Exorcism and the Church Militant. The parallels in the pro-life movement to the Church's hand-to-hand combat with the devil in exorcism are legion. The abortion industry is not just powerful in worldly terms; it is the institutionalized power of the devil. Human beings cannot commit such immense atrocities without a diabolical intelligence and malice giving them power. The scope of the killing, the fervor of abortion's missionaries of death and the seductive force of its ideology transcend the human intellect and will. Only the Church has the spiritual resources and the authority to end the culture of death. This book examines not only the satanic nature of the abortion industry, but also the spiritual power that the Church can marshal in the defense of the most innocent of God's children, the unborn--and their mothers. Christ will use the hearts that are ready to pray and the hands that are ready to work, and He will, through His Church Militant, drive out the evil of abortion from our midst.

Thomas Euteneuer was born in Detroit, Michigan, in 1962, the fourth of seven children born to Joseph and Mariann Euteneuer.
While in college, Euteneuer participated in the Marine Corps Officer Candidate Program and attended Platoon Leader"s Course at Quantico, Virginia.
He was president of the organization Human Life International from 2000 to 2010. He earned a Bachelor"s degree in Philosophy from the University of Notre Dame in Indiana as well as a Licentiate degree in Biblical Theology from the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome, Italy. He is fluent in Spanish.
Believing that the Lord was calling him to the priesthood rather than the military, he left the course without graduating and entered the seminary.
After his ordination in 1988, Euteneuer served as a parish priest in five parishes of the Diocese of Palm Beach, Florida, secretary to the diocesan bishop, director of vocations, and spiritual moderator for the diocesan Respect Life Office. His pro-life activity began in the early years of his priesthood with prayer vigils, pilgrimages, pickets at abortion clinics, sidewalk counseling and the establishment of a crisis pregnancy center across the street from an abortion clinic in 1999, which became the subject of an Home Box Office documentary in 2010.
In December 2000, he became president of the pro-life organization Human Life International (HLI). In that capacity, he made many appearances on EWTN and other local, national and international media.
He was featured in the newspapers Human Events and National Catholic Register.
In 2005 he was awarded the John O"Connor Award for Life by the Catholic lay group Legatus. In those years Euteneuer was also called upon to serve as an exorcist. He wrote a book on the subject and became known for his talks about exorcism.
In 2007, Euteneuer appeared on the Fox News Channel program Hannity & Colmes, to respond to a statement by host Sean Hannity, a Catholic, against Church teaching on contraception.
He wrote two columns about the controversy. In August 2010, Euteneuer resigned from HLI at the request of his bishop.
On January 31, 2011, Euteneuer issued a statement disclosing that he had "violat the boundaries of chastity with an adult female who was under my spiritual care", and expressing regret. He indicated that the violation had not involved "the sexual act," any other persons, or any financial settlement.
Euteneuer emphasized that the violation had nothing to do with his position in Human Life International but "were related exclusively to my own decisions and conduct within the ministry of exorcism that I carried out independently from my responsibilities at HLI."
On June 27, 2012, the Associated Press reported that a woman was suing the Catholic Diocese of Arlington, Virginia.
Bishop Paul Loverde. And Human Life International for alleged sexual abuse during an exorcism. However, Enteneuer was not named as a defendant.
The woman is said to be seeking $5.3 million United States dollar in damages.
