During his homily this Easter, Pope Benedict argued that medical science, in trying to defeat death, is leading humanity toward likely condemnation. It’s a position at odds with the value of life, one that the Church will likely revise years from now, replaying the institution’s embarrassment over censoring Galileo. If life death could be postponed indefinitely, Pope Benedict suggested, “humanity would become extraordinarily old. There would be no more room for youth. Capacity for innovation would die, and endless life would be no paradise, if anything a condemnation.”
