ABOARD THE PAPAL PLANE (AP) — Pope Francis on Friday slammed both U.S. presidential candidates for what he called anti-life policies on abortion and migration, and he advised American Catholics to choose who they think is the “lesser evil” in the upcoming U.S. elections.

“Both are against life, be it the one who kicks out migrants, or be it the one who kills babies,″ Francis said.

Francis said migration is a right described in Scripture and that anyone who does not follow the Biblical call to welcome the stranger is committing a “grave sin.”

He was also blunt in speaking about abortion. “To have an abortion is to kill a human being. You may like the word or not, but it’s killing,” he said. “We have to see this clearly.”

Asked what voters should do at the polls, Francis recalled the civic duty to vote.

    I think that it was the Pope making himself irrelevant in this election.


    "Hey, just keep me
    outta this one."

    What you call "unlimited abortion" is the right to perform late-term abortions, which are only performed when the life of the mother is in jeopardy. Are you opposed to saving the life of mothers in such life and death circumstances?

    Yes he is.

    This is probably a net positive for Kamala. Many Catholics already have qualms about abortion. Fewer probably considered being anti-immigrant as sinful. Also blocking immigration at the border is one thing, mass deportation is another.

    Many Catholics also ignore most of the pope's decrees. Nobody goes to church anymore - the Catholic church is dying right along with most other religions. Ignorance is easily extinguished by education - as I've told the board welfare queen many times.
