Pope condemns assisted dying as false mercy
Pope Leo XIV sharply criticized the legitimization of death through medical assistance, considering it "false mercy" that is unethical. He emphasized the teachings of the Catholic Church regarding the protection of human life. This statement was made during his visit to the French city of Lourdes, where he attended a mass with approximately 150,000 people and focused on opposing abortion and death through medical assistance. In his speech, he addressed the issue of end-of-life decisions, a highly controversial topic in France, which has recently legalized the use of lethal medications for patients with incurable diseases. The visit coincided with ongoing investigations within the Church regarding clerical abuses, and he spoke about the importance of acknowledging mistakes for spiritual growth. This visit is part of a four-day tour.
