Only fair to give the complete text and let folks decide for themselves.
Not a word regarding Planned Parenthood.
What is the point in having a Pope if atrocities like this are not addressed????
the man couldn’t hold Billy Graham’s slippers
RE: Not a word regarding Planned Parenthood.
He did say this though:
_________________________
“if we want security, let us give security; if we want life, let us give life; if we want opportunities, let us provide opportunities. The yardstick we use for others will be the yardstick which time will use for us. The Golden Rule also reminds us of our responsibility to protect and defend human life at every stage of its development.”

Not that it went into the hearts of Catholics like Pelosi or Kerry.
Biden’s title is not “Vice-President.” It’s “President.” He’s President of the Senate.
So subtle it can only be viewed as non-confrontational.
THAT mistake I’ll forgive him.
Honestly, I don’t know what to think of this guy.
I was raised Roman Catholic, for the record.
To me, Pope John Paul II was the epitome. He worked with Reagan, and Prime Minister Thatcher to bring down the Soviets.
Pope Francis, well... coming from Leftist Argentina, I guess, he’s adpoted some of their ideas.
Dont know... no one knows another man’s soul, except God.
There’s just enough there so that neo-Catholic Papolaters will be able to torture some sort of “pro-life” message out of it, but it’s so subtle and bland that it will never, ever embarrass Pelosi, Biden, or Obama.
Not a word about same-sex marriage.
The only one that comes close to the issue is this statement:
____________________________
“Fundamental relationships are being called into question, as is the very basis of marriage and the family. I can only reiterate the importance and, above all, the richness and the beauty of family life.”
____________________________
Which proponents of same-sex marriage could also take as AFFIRMING their “family” life.
That’s gonna leave a mark.
He praised Dorothy Day, a communist, a number of times.
Yeah, it's crystal clear now. He is a Marxist and a tool of the left.
Sadly, I see great similarity in the way that both Barack Obama and Pope Francis were
uniquely positioned to take action that would have a positive impact on America and the
ways both squandered their opportunities to push similar leftist social and political agendas.
Of all the Catholic women out there, who does this pope praise? Dorothy Day. After reading about her, Jane Fonda sounded holy in comparison. Day was a total socialist who praised all manor of communist dictators and more: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorothy_Day
WASHINGTON, D.C., September 24, 2015 (LifeSiteNews) -- The man behind the massive exposé of Planned Parenthood’s fetal parts tells LifeSiteNews that it was "unfortunate" that Pope Francis didn't address the scandal in today's speech before the US Congress...https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/pro-life-investigator-its-too-bad-pope-francis-didnt-slam-baby-parts-traffi
Where was the gospel of Jesus Christ? Where was the message of salvation by fatih? Without a nation repenting and coming to Christ, the rest is just meaningless blather.
