"Canon Law, which teaches how to correctly interpret and apply the Church's law, is a body of law founded on natural and divine law which are the ultimate parameters of justice that ecclesiastical authority must follow. Therefore, Canon Law grants all the necessary tools to those who exercise authority so they can adapt the rigor and the requirements of the law to be justly applied in concrete cases, that is to say, that the demands of charity and mercy cannot be forgotten in applying the law."
