Vatican City: Pope Francis has called on world leaders to ban surrogacy globally. The Pope said the practice was absolutely reprehensible.
The Pope also said that the surrogacy system calls into question the self-esteem of the child and the woman who carries it in the womb. The Pope made the appeal in a New Year message to Vatican diplomatic representatives on Monday. The Pope also called for an end to global conflicts.
The Pope explained that respect for life is the path to peace. It begins with the life of the child in the mother’s womb. Do not deprive it or use it as a tool for human trafficking. It is for this reason that surrogacy is condemned by the Pope.
Because it exploits the mother’s material situation, it disrespects the self-esteem of the woman and the child. Children are a gift from God.
They should never be the product of a commercial agreement. The Pope said that it is hoped that there will be an effort to ban this practice universally from the international community.
