CWN Editor's Note: “More than a month has gone by since the beginning of the invasion of Ukraine, of the beginning of this cruel and senseless war, that, like every war, represents a defeat for everyone, for every one of us,” Pope Francis said on March 27.
Describing war as a “barbarous and sacrilegious act,” the Pope said that “war should not be something that is inevitable. We should not accustom ourselves to war ... Before the danger of self-destruction, may humanity understand that the moment has come to abolish war, to erase it from human history before it erases human history.”

How about: "Abolish abortion now! It represents a defeat for everyone, for every one of us. It is a barbarous and sacrilegious act, it is never something that is inevitable. We should not accustom ourselves to abortion. Before the danger of self-destruction, may humanity understand that the moment has come to abolish abortion, to erase it from human history before it erases human history."
