What’s more noteworthy may actually be the pope’s comments on abortion—for the opposite reason. When the reporter on the plane asked if birth control was the lesser of two evils compared to abortion when it comes to Zika, the pope answered, “Taking one life to save another, that’s what the Mafia does. It’s a crime. It’s an absolute evil.” That language surprised Camosy. “He’s never spoken about abortion in that way before” he says. “He’s condemned abortion before but usually with a more gentle hand.”

No! Abortion is not 'taking a life to save another". That sounds to me like a distorted defense of abortion. It is another lie.

Right.  What would have been more accurate for Francis to say is that abortion is the taking of a life that's inconveniencing another.

You missed the point, Poche.

Neither of us is saying that abortion is not murder. Even abortionists know that it is murder.

My point is to draw attention to the error in the scandalous comment that Francis made that abortion is "taking a life to save another". This statement totally denies the reality that abortion is never performed to save the life of another.To imply such is at least ignorant, in which case he should educate himself, and possibly devious.  

Abortion thrives on falsehood.
