CWN Editor's Note: In a December 2 tweet, Pope Francis decried modern forms of slavery.

“Modern slavery—human trafficking, forced labor, prostitution, and organ trafficking—is a crime ‘against humanity,’” he said. “Each of us is a reflection of the image of God, and we cannot tolerate that the image of the living God is subjected to such abhorrent exploitation.”
