Pope Francis has made news with his recent remarks about capital punishment and the catechism.  They are seriously problematic.  In an article at Catholic Herald, I provide an analysis.

LifeSiteNews has also asked me to comment on the story.

In our book By Man Shall His Blood Be Shed: A Catholic Defense of Capital Punishment(at pp. 183-96), Joseph Bessette and I analyze in detail Pope Francis’s previous statements on this subject.  They too are problematic, but less so than the pope’s most recent remarks.
