VATICAN CITY -- Pope John Paul II delivered a historic speech before the Italian parliament, urging Italians to have more children to reverse the nation's declining birth rate.

The pontiff also called on Italian authorities to show prisoners "a gesture of clemency" by reducing their sentences and repeated his call for the new European Union constitution to recognise Christianity's tradition on the continent.

Politicians, he said on Thursday, should adopt initiatives that "can make the task of having children and bringing them up less burdensome both socially and economically," The Associated Press reported.

The Polish-born pope called Italy's declining birth rate, one of the lowest in the world, "another grave threat that bears upon the future of this country, one which is already conditioning its life and its capacity for development."

It was the first time a pope has addressed the Italian parliament, bringing together church and state.

Regarding the turbulent history between the Roman Catholic Church and Italy, John Paul remarked: "We all know that this association has gone through widely different phases and circumstances, subject to the vicissitudes and contradictions of history," AP reported.

He added that Italy's very identity "would be most difficult to understand without reference to Christianity, its life-blood."

The Communications Ministry issued a commemorative postcard bearing images of the pope against the backdrop of the Senate and Chamber of Deputies, and the Vatican was handing out special medals to lawmakers to mark the occasion.

Clemency request
The pontiff also referred to a topic widely debated in the Italian media -- whether he would ask for clemency for prisoners.

"A gesture of clemency toward prisoners through a reduction of their sentences would be clear evidence of a sensitivity which would encourage them in their own personal rehabilitation for the sake of a constructive reinsertion into society," the pope told parliament.

John Paul appealed to European leaders, who are drafting a new EU constitution, to recognise the role Christianity has played on the continent.

"There is a need to guard against a vision of the continent which would only take into account its economic and political aspects," and not its religious ones, the pope said.

The Rome daily La Repubblica said in an editorial this week that the visit "represents the symbolic surmounting of the breach of Porta Pia," a reference to the 1870 capture of Rome by the Italian army that ended the pope's rule over the city, AP reported.

Italian forces seized a vast swathe of church-owned land, called the Papal States, in the mid-19th century and declared Rome -- home of the Vatican -- the capital of the unified country in 1870.

The new government guaranteed the pope independence within what is now Vatican City and offered to compensate the Church for the lost lands. But Pope Pius IX refused to recognise the government and called himself a "prisoner" of the Vatican.

The so-called "Roman Question" was resolved in 1929 when the Vatican and Italy signed a treaty that recognised both as sovereign entities and proclaimed Roman Catholicism Italy's state religion.
