A Pro-Life Champion - Pope Francis

The victims of this (throwaway) culture are precisely the weakest and most fragile human beings—the unborn, the poorest, the sick and elderly, the seriously handicapped, etc.—who are in danger of being 'thrown away', expelled from a system that must be efficient at all costs.

...It is necessary to raise awareness and form the lay faithful, in whatever state, especially those engaged in the field of politics, so that they may think in accord with the Gospel and the social doctrine of the church and act consistently by dialoguing and collaborating with those who, in sincerity and intellectual honesty, share—if not the faith—at least a similar vision of mankind and society and its ethical consequences.
