Pope Francis denounces euthanasia as `sin against God`

Pope Francis has recently condemned the "right to die movement," and called it a "sin against God and creation."  The Pope said that it was a "false sense of compassion" to consider euthanasia as an act of dignity to the Association of Italian Catholic Doctors, News24.com reported.

He also condemned abortion, in vitro fertilisation (or "the scientific production of a child") and embryonic stem cell research (or "using human beings as laboratory experiments to presumably save others.") He mentioned that this was playing with life.
