Breitbart: Pope Francis Prays for Commuted Sentences for U.S. Death Row Inmates
Pope Francis has urged Christians to pray for inmates on death row in the U.S., advocating for the commutation of their sentences. This appeal marks a rare instance of the pontiff focusing on a specific nation in his calls for prayer against the death penalty.
The Catholic Church's stance on capital punishment has evolved, with Pope Francis declaring it "inadmissible" and contrary to the gospel. While the Church has shifted its teaching, it has not labeled capital punishment as intrinsically evil, allowing for differing opinions among Catholics. Reactions to the pope's tweet have been mixed, with some supporting his activism and others questioning the focus on inmates rather than victims.
