Mexico City, Mexico, Jun 15, 2007 / 09:57 am
The archbishop of Mexico City, Cardinal Norberto Rivera Carrera, presented his new book this week entitled, “The Tree of Life,” which offers a collection of his teachings on different issues of importance to Catholics.
Describing it as “a synthesis of the teachings of the Catholic Church on issues such as abortion, organ donation and euthanasia,” the cardinal said the book was “a contribution to the education of the faithful.”
Cardinal Rivera said his intention in putting together the book was not to cause “controversy” or to “discredit anyone,” but rather “to explain my convictions, the teaching of the Church, the teaching we find in Scripture.”
