The Washington Post’s Julie Zauzmer reports that on Monday, Pope Francis published an apostolic exhortation, which provides guidance for the Catholic Church. “Our defense of the innocent unborn, for example, needs to be clear, firm and passionate, for at stake is the dignity of a human life,” Pope Francis wrote, before affirming that it was equally holy and pressing for Christians to care for the poor and downtrodden. The Rev. James Bretzke at Boston College said, “It will not make liturgy traditionalists very happy.”
