In a rare intervention in American politics, Pope Leo XIV highlighted the contradictions among those who declare themselves pro-life but support the death penalty. His comments came in the context of plans to award Senator Dick Durbin a prize, generating objections from conservative bishops due to his position on abortion. The Pope called for respect in the ethical debate and emphasized the importance of carefully analyzing issues related to life and human dignity, without directly mentioning the Trump administration.
