Pope Francis has made a striking intervention in the upcoming U.S. presidential election, urging American Catholics to choose the 'lesser evil' between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris. During a news conference at the end of his 12-day tour of Southeast Asia, the Pope criticized both candidates for their 'anti-life' stances, particularly on issues of abortion and migration. He emphasized that migration is a right enshrined in Scripture and that failing to welcome the stranger constitutes a 'grave sin.' Without explicitly endorsing either candidate, Francis's comments highlight the moral complexities facing voters and the importance of considering broader ethical implications in their decision-making process.
