On November 27, 2010, Pope Benedict XVI. presided at the Basilica of St.. Liturgy of Peter the First Vespers of Advent Sun This practice of celebration to mark the beginning of a new liturgical year has been this year coupled with prayer vigil for nascent life. The Holy Father during the first vespers liturgy Advent Sunday - inter alia - said: "Believing in Jesus Christ is also seeing new people, look of confidence and hope. Indeed, the experience itself and common sense shown by the fact that human beings are self-confident and free, unique and irreplaceable able to understand and give cause want, is the apex of earthly realities, needs to be recognized as a value in itself and always deserves to be taken with respect and love. has a right to it had not been treated as an object, which can be owned, or with things that can be freely manipulated, so as not reduced to a mere instrument for the benefit of others and their interests. The human person is in itself good and need to always strive for a holistic development. Love to all, if it is sincere, then spontaneously shows special attention to the weakest and poorest. This line fits the Church worry about nascent life, which is the most fragile and threatened egotism and blanking adult conscience. The Church continually refers to Second Vatican Council's declaration against abortion, and violence against počatému every human life: "Life is the greatest care to protect it from the very conception" (ibid., no.51).
a cultural tendency to try to desensitize the conscience of the apparent reasons. Science itself on the embryo in the womb claimed to be autonomous, able to interact with her mother, coordinated biological process, a continuous development and increasing organic complexity. It is a cluster of bio- material, but a new, dynamic and wonderfully furnished living creature, a new individual human species. So it was with Jesus in Mary's womb, as was the case with all of us in the womb. Along with the ancient Christian author Tertuliánem we can say: "Even one who is yet to be, is a man" (Apologeticum, IX, 8), there is no reason why it should not be considered a person from conception.
Unfortunately, even after the birth of the lives of children remain exposed to abandonment, hunger, poverty, disease, abuse, violence and exploitation. Multiple rape of their rights, which takes place in the world, sorely hurt the conscience of every man of good will. Faced tristnímu skyline injustices committed against human life, both before and after birth, I repeat, along with John Paul II. passionate call for the responsibility of all and each: "Protect and take care, love and observe life, the life of every man! Only in this way can be found progress and justice, true freedom, peace and happiness! "(Evangelium Vitae, 5). Invite representatives of the political, economic and social communications, to do everything they can to support a culture that is more respectful of human life and create favorable conditions and support network for its adoption and deployment.
