"Pope says bishops must educate faithful to vote against abortion"

As per words today from the Holy Father, "when the fundamental rights of the person or the salvation of souls requires it, pastors have a serious duty to make moral judgments even in political matters....When political positions openly or covertly include plans to decriminalize abortion and euthanasia, the democratic ideal -- which is truly democratic only when it acknowledges and safeguards the dignity of every human person -- is betrayed at its foundations"

A brief clip of the Holy Father's words is available on YouTube.

A VERY Unofficial Translation is also available....
