Los recientes desacuerdos entre el Papa León XIV y el
presidente Donald Trump han sido ampliamente comentados
por periodistas, humoristas, y personas influyentes en las
redes sociales. Algunos han dicho que el Papa debería mantenerse al margen y no inmiscuirse en asuntos globales como
la guerra. Sin embargo, cualquier papa tiene el derecho y la
responsabilidad de abordar cuestiones de fe y moral. La moralidad trasciende lo personal; también es social. El Santo
Padre debe pronunciarse sobre temas que afectan a la humanidad, incluyendo la guerra y la paz.
The recent disagreements between Pope Leo XIV and
President Donald Trump have been discussed at length by
news reporters, late night comedians, and social media influencers. Some have said that the pope should “stay in
his lane” and not delve into global issues like war. However, any pope has both a right and a responsibility to
address matters of faith and morals. Morality is more than
personal; it is also social. The Holy Father must speak out
on issues that have an impact on human beings, including
war and peace.

In the Easter season, we celebrate the victory of Jesus
Christ over sin and death. This presents us with the opportunity to confront something that affects many people —
