‘Abortion is killing’: Pope Francis



VATICAN CITY: Abortion is killing and its practice amounts to the hiring of a ‘paid killer’. Pope France said so on Saturday. He used similar ‘paid killer’ remarks on abortion in October 2018, sparking a controversy in medical circles.

Pope spoke, ‘Every child is a gift that changes the history of a family… and this child needs to be welcomed, loved and cared for.’ ‘Is it legitimate to take out a human life to solve a problem?’ He asked attendees at a Vatican conference on the issue.
