The Pope Francisco has condemned sexist violence at his first mass of the year. “How much violence is there against women. Enough, hurting a woman is insulting God, who took humanity from a woman, not from an angel, but directly from a woman, “the pontiff asserted.
Francisco has dedicated his homily to women and mothers, stating that “they manage to keep dreams and concrete together, avoiding deviations from aseptic pragmatism and abstraction.”
Mothers, he continued, “know how to hold the threads of life together” and that is why they are essential in today’s world, because they are “able to weave threads of communion, that counteract the barbed wires of the divisions, which are too many “.
Furthermore, the pope has sent a message to the Catholic Church: “The Church is a mother, it is a womanFor this reason, a woman cannot be found in the Church without reflecting her in this mother’s heart. This is the great place of women in the Church, from which other secondary ones derive “, he affirmed.
Recently, Francisco described violence against women as “an almost satanic problem”, after receiving a victim of sexist violence in the Vatican.
