Pope warns in Lourdes medicine must never serve programmed death
Original: Pope in Lourdes: 'Medicine must never be servant of programmed death'
Pope Leo spoke during a visit to the French shrine of Lourdes, a major Catholic pilgrimage site associated with healing, declaring that medicine must never become a servant of programmed death. The remarks were reported by Vatican News and read as a reaffirmation of Church teaching opposing euthanasia and assisted dying, framed in defence of care for the sick and vulnerable.
Why now: The Pope's pilgrimage to Lourdes and his pointed comments on euthanasia are drawing attention amid ongoing debates over assisted dying in Europe.
