...pope, it might not have mattered how gruesome Mease's crimes were. But then, the pope's argument against capital punishment rests not on politics but on a thoroughgoing reverence for life--a hardline, traditionalist stance that also entails calling for an end to abortion and to assisted suicide and that therefore puts him and the American majority on different sides on at least two of the three issues...
