Episode 10: Does Pope Francis want Catholics to have fewer children?
from The John-Henry Westen Show
Scripture teaches us that God is the author of life. Children are truly a blessing and in procreation parents cooperate with God in creating new souls for heaven is a glorious teaching. During his 2015 trip to the Philippines, Pope Francis remarked that Catholics don’t need to breed “like rabbits,” and instead stressed the importance of having 3 children, enough to sustain the population. Today, on Episode 10 of The John-Henry Westen Show, I discuss Pope Francis’ distressing remarks and attitude regarding large families and the true beauty of a family of any size. Hosted on Acast.
