La Paz, Bolivia, Jun 27, 2005 / 22:00 pm
The president of the Bishops’ Conference of Bolivia, Cardinal Juan Terrazas Sandoval, called on Bolivians this week to reject the expressions “of hatred and anger that are increasingly separating us from each other.”
During Sunday Mass, the cardinal said that “in the voice of every brother and sister,” one should hear “a cry for understanding,” and at the same time “a willingness and richness that should be placed at the service of others.”
“Today we cannot in any way support discrimination and much less intolerance,” he noted. Cardinal Terrazas also called leaders and authorities to greater discernment in order to avoid committing the same mistakes in the future that have led to the country’s current crisis.
