Popes addresses thousands of young Catholics in Brazil
Pope Benedict XVI urged tens of thousands of young Catholics packing a football stadium to resist the temptations of wealth, power and other “snares of evil,” and told them to promote life from “its beginning to natural end.”
The references to church prohibitions against abortion and euthanasia came yesterday in Benedict’s first major speech since arriving in Brazil, the world’s largest Catholic country, on his first pilgrimage to Latin America.
