Mexico City, Mexico, Jul 29, 2009 / 08:35 pm (CNA).- In a meeting with local reporters, the Apostolic Nuncio in Mexico, Archbishop Christopher Pierre, said that any case of proven clerical abuse merits severe ecclesial and civil punishment.

While encouraging Mexicans to fight against violence, the archbishop also noted that the Church respects every investigation and all legal processes.

“Violence stems from the anguish in peoples’ hearts, it stems from families because of a lack of education, a lack of moral, spiritual and religious values,” he added.

Regarding abortion, the nuncio insisted that the role of the Church is always to defend every human being from conception to natural death.
