Bishop of Rome

His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI was officially installed today as the Bishop of Rome in St. John Lateran Basilica, which is the seat of that see.

In his homily, the Holy Father reiterated the stance of his venerable predecessor Pope John Paul II in declaring that human dignity and life needs to be defended at all costs from conception to natural death. Either life is defended or humanity will slip under the yoke of a tyranny of slavery.

I haven't found the text of the homily yet. I'll post a link as soon as I find it.
