By Hilary White and John-Henry Westen
VATICAN, February 24, 2006 (LifeSiteNews.com) - On March 25, Pope Benedict XVI will elevate fifteen men to the College of Cardinals. Of the fifteen only twelve will be of an age to vote in the conclave for a new pope and thus the remainder are seen as honorific appointments.
LifeSiteNews.com has compiled a short summary of pro-life and pro-family statements by those twelve. Those statements reveal that that the Pope has placed a high priority on choosing Cardinals who have made a priority of defending the sacredness of life, the natural family and traditional Christian morality. A number of these new cardinals have been especially outspoken and consistent on these issues.
