Clergy abuse
of children is still under the radar regarding Francis's thoughts and words on
a throwaway culture which has its merits as a concept.
Makes a great sound bite for the
media.
But once
born and not aborted, children in this world like in the church are on their
own to fend for themselves against the wolves of this world.
Words do not
change anything Francis.
Pope Francis on Monday called
abortion "horrific" and said it was part of a new "throwaway
culture" he said wasted human life as easily as it wasted food — his
strongest words yet on a practice that is a divisive political issue in the
United States.
Until now, Francis has appeared to have stayed away from strong
statements on the church's stands on moral behavior of individuals, preferring
to focus on more positive messages about the teachings of Jesus Christ and the
need to see to the poor.
His comments during the start of his papacy that the church need
not "obsess" about abortion and gay marriage bothered conservative
Catholics who see the issues as ones that the church ought to object to
strongly. On Monday, Francis put his own stamp on the church's long-held opposition
to abortion.
"It is frightful even to think that there are children,
victims of abortion, who will never see the light of day," Francis said in
what has become a traditional annual address to the Vatican diplomatic corps.
