The image of Pope Benedict XVI is seen, at right, on a giant video screen set up in Pope Paul VI Hall, during the weekly general audience at the Vatican, Wednesday Nov. 11, 2009. The pontiff has urged Europeans to defend their continent's religious and cultural heritage. The pope told pilgrims Wednesday that all those who hold the future of Europe dear to their hearts should 'rediscover, appreciate and defend the rich cultural and religious heritage' of past centuries.
