The Pope attempts to get Nancy Pelosi's Soul's Attention

The Pope has tried to get through to Ms Pelosi...according to Vatican Radio:

Pope says Catholic Legislators Must Protect Life in Meeting with US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi

(18 Feb 09 - RV) Following the General Audience the Holy Father briefly greeted Mrs Nancy Pelosi, Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, together with her entourage.

His Holiness took the opportunity to speak of the requirements of the natural moral law and the Church’s consistent teaching on the dignity of human life from conception to natural death which enjoin all Catholics, and especially legislators, jurists and those responsible for the common good of society, to work in cooperation with all men and women of good will in creating a just system of laws capable of protecting human life at all stages of its development.

Of Course, Ms Pelosi must have had a different visit. From her press release:

In our conversation, I had the opportunity to praise the Church's leadership in fighting poverty, hunger, and global warming, as well as the Holy Father's dedication to religious freedom and his upcoming trip and message to Israel.

"I was proud to show his Holiness a photograph of my family's Papal visit in the 1950s, as well as a recent picture of our children and grandchildren.

This is an astonding statement from a supposedly "devout" Catholic to make after visiting the Pope. Especially after Pope Benedict effort to instruct her on the church's teachings on life issues. Surely she could have said something about being given things to think over.
