Pope Francis Calls Abortion, Assisted Suicide 'A Sin Against God'

VATICAN CITY Pope Francis has warned doctors and ethicists on several hot-button social issues, attacking abortion, embryonic stem cell research and euthanasia as "playing with life" and "a sin against God." In a strongly worded address that marked a departure for a pope who tends to focus more on social justice issues, Francis denounced what he called the "false sense of compassion" that was used to promote abortion and those who regarded euthanasia as "an act of dignity."
