Fifth Commandment

Twenty-ninth Sunday in Ordinary time .

Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ:

Every Wednesday, the Pope meets with pilgrims and visitors to Rome in a General Audience. Admission is free, all you need to do is obtain a ticket. During the Audience the Pope gives a brief catechesis. It has become customary for the Pope to develop a topic over many Wednesdays. Pope Francis is currently teaching about the commandments. Providentially, on this Respect Life month he is focusing on the fifth Commandment. I share with you his comments.

“The fifth Commandment: you shall not kill. We are already in the second part of the Decalogue, the part which deals with relationships with our neighbor. And, with its concise and categorical formulation, this commandment rises up like a wall to defend the basic values of human relationships. And what is the basic value in human relationships?: the value of life. Thus, you shall not kill.
