Kudos for Papa's Pro-lifers
Pope Benedict XVI offered his strong support to pro-life activists during his weekly public audience on November 16.
At a time when Italy is caught up in a heated debate about experimental use of the abortifacient drug RU-486, the Holy Father greeted a pro-life group that was in attendance at his public audience, saying that they were "writing new pages of hope for the future of humanity."
The Pope recognized the presence of about 50 young members of the Italian Movement for Life among the 22,000 people attending his Wednesday audience. The Movement for Life is dedicated to helping women find alternatives to abortion, and the Pope praised them for their "attentive activities in support of women and families." This weekend the group will hold a conference in Florence on "the freedom not to abort."
