“In a letter sent through his Secretariat of State, the pope said he “greatly appreciates the dedicated work” that the group, which leads people to pray in front of abortion facilities, has undertaken “to promote respect for the lives of all unborn children.”
It would mean more if he wrote the letter himself. He has time to talk on the phone to strangers, so why can’t he do his own writing. All he really has to do is sign it.
Hey, any time a message comes from Pope Francis that is straight, unambiguous, and orthodox, I’m grateful.
Besides, maybe he was going to say something off the cuff when the Secretariat of State intervened. “That’s okay, Your Holiness. I’ve got this one.”
