Bishops: ``Democracy cannot exist without the right to life''
At the opening session of the 91st General Assembly of CEV, Santana, who is the Bishop of Maracaibo City, west Venezuela, warned: ``Democracy cannot exist without the sacred right to life, the right to property and the right to move freely throughout the territory, without being subject to a curfew imposed by criminals.''
The Bishop of Lichfield has defended the place of Christianity in public life; and warned that ``the secularisation of our country is in danger of happening step by step without proper debate.''
