Pope Francis is pinning much of his hopes for a more peaceful world on women, saying they should be involved in decision-making.
Pope Francis grabbed by woman
In his homily Wednesday in St. Peter's Basilica, Francis decried the “many times women's bodies are sacrificed on the profane altar of advertisements, of profit, of pornography.” He also lamented that women are ”continually offended, beaten, raped, forced into prostitution" or forced to have abortions. The Catholic church forbids abortion.
“And if we want a better world, that is a house of peace and not a courtyard of war, may the dignity of every woman be at the heart of it,'' Francis said. “Women are givers and mediators of peace, and should be fully associated with decision-making processes.”
