In an interview yesterday, Pope Francis called Catholic Joe Biden’s position on abortion “incoherent.”

Well, to be fair Joe Biden’s position on pretty much everything is incoherent.

Catholic World Report: The Holy Father affirmed that there is scientific data that show that “a month after conception, the DNA of the fetus is already there and the organs are aligned. There is human life.”

“Is it just to eliminate a human life?” he then asked.

As for the defense of abortion by the U.S. president, Pope Francis stated that he leaves it to Biden’s “conscience.”

“Let (Biden) talk to his pastor about that incoherence,” the pope said.

I’m grateful that Pope Francis said what he said but I can’t help but wish he went a little further here. It’s not like Pope Francis is a huge proponent of subsidiarity. But we’ll take good news where we can get it, I guess.
