DEFEND LIFE IF YOU WANT PEACE —Pope Paull "If you want peace, defend life", Pope Paul proclaims in his message for World Day of Peace next weekend. "Life is the crown of peace. If we base the logic of our activity on the sacredness of life, war is virtually disqualified as a normal and habitual means of asserting peace." The Pope has praise for "the effort already begun to reduce and finally to eliminate this senseless cold war resulting from the progressive increase of the military potential of the various nations, as if these nations should necessarily be the enemies of each other. "But it is not only war that kills peace", t he Pope continues. "Every crime against life is o blow to peace, especial ly if it strikes at the moral conduct of people, as it happens in the suppression of life, by abortion."
