The Pontifical Academy for Life, a department of the Vatican, led by Archbishop Vincenzo Paglia, praised the decision of the Supreme Court to annul the ruling, after half a century of Roe vs. Wade, who legalized abortions throughout the North American country.
This message of support was sent through a statement, where they pointed out that This decision reopens a necessary dialogue on the issue of abortion.
“The fact that a large country with a long democratic tradition has changed its position on this issue, it also challenges the whole world “, reads a part of the statement.
Likewise, they added: “ It is not fair that the problem be left aside without adequate consideration of whole. The protection and defense of human life is not a subject that can be circumscribed to the exercise of individual rights, but rather is a matter of wide social transcendence”.
