Every quote I have heard or can back search on shows him staunchly in the Pro-Life camp. "Anti-Abortion & Anti-Surrogacy: Pope Leo XVI has hardened his stance on abortion, calling it a threat to peace, and has criticized surrogacy as a "negotiable service" - National Catholic Register. "Criticism of "Pro-Life" Contradictions: He has publicly argued that those who are against abortion but in favor of the death penalty are not fully living out the "pro-life" label." - CBS News - This is not a new criticism of those that are pro death penalty and also pro life, and you do get yourself in a bit of a semantics bind when you call abortion "State sponsored murder" on one hand yet volcally rally behind capital punishment with the other. Consistent Ethic of Life: He argues that "pro-life" must go beyond just the unborn to include support for women and families. - NewsNation - Fully 1000% support this! Not enough support is given to orphanages aorund the world, or even support for our state/county foster and adoption agencies. How many of die hard pro-lifers would consider adoption or becomming foster parents. How many of you would explicitly tell your children not to bully someone who is in foster care or have been adopted. Crulest thing I ever heard was someone telling another adopted kid "You were put up for adoption because your parents didn't want you." At a Catholic school! Pope Leo's stance against surrogocy directly ties into this as it directs parents away from adopting.
