During his weekly radio program, “Dialogue of Faith,” Cardinal Juan Luis Cipriani Thorne of Lima warned of the existence of a worldwide campaign to attack religion in order to destroy the right to life, marriage and the family, and said Catholics must put up resistance.
“Without the family there is no society, there is no globalization, nor economic progress, there is nothing; the family is the basic cell of society,” the cardinal said in reference to one of the central challenges that will be addressed at the 5th General Conference of the Latin American Bishops’ Council in Parricide (Brazil), which he will attend.
