Pope Tells New Obama Vatican Ambassador to Uphold Pro-Life Position on Abortion
Pope Benedict XVI has a message for the pro-Obama political activist who the president appointed to become his new Vatican ambassador: uphold the pro-life position on abortion. Some pro-life Catholics have been concerned that Miguel Diaz won't faithfully uphold the pro-life teachings of the Catholic Church.
Benedict has written a letter to Diaz, a former professor of theology at the College of St. Benedict in St. Joseph, and St. John's University in Collegeville, both in Minnesota.
