The Pope Compares Abortion To 'Hiring A HITMAN'

Pope Francis has compared abortion to 'hiring a hitman' during a Vatican-sponsored anti-abortion conference.

Abortion can never be condoned, even when the fetus is gravely sick or malformed, Pope Francis said during a pro-life conference held in the Vatican this morning.

He urged doctors and priests to support families to carry all pregnancies to term - even where death is the result.
