On May 8, our father of the Homeland celebrates 272 years of being born and 214 of having been killed by the real forces, after being defenestrated by the Catholic Church to which it belonged. Although in 1987, the mentioned church tried to apologize to the priest, which was not clear, has never asked the Mexicans who consider Hidalgo our greatest liberator. Nor have we seen in that Catholic nucleus that a believer is configured, the logical intention that as a people we are endorsed with the request for forgiveness of the clergy. The current conclave that is being carried out in the city of the Vatican and that has made a profession of faith these days mentioning the great avatars that this belief has, it is pronounced, however for “healing the wounds of humanity” and it would be good that among those wounds were ours, that of the great Mexican people who are free, thanks to the fact that a great priest gave his life for him.
Although they wanted to eliminate their cure position, at their death, they could not facing the fact that the Catholic Church has joined in those times of 1811, to be decapitated to Father Hidalgo, there have been reactions that have not completed that controversial case. In fact at this time, it is not mentioned. Hidalgo is simply in the prolegomena of that trial and ecclesial support to eliminate the priestly figure in Hidalgo and kill him without being a priest. False conception because the same hierarchs point out that they never stop being a priest. That is Hidalgo died. The visit they made to Dolores Hidalgo several pontiffs in 1987 was to pay tribute and apologize for what they had done in Chihuahua in 1811, when Hidalgo was killed. On this, terrible documents have been announced about the way they were expressed from the Guanajuato priest, even Spanish priests who were with the invaders. During the visit to Dolores, which I covered for the Unomásuno newspaper, outside the words expressed in the Mass, the request for forgiveness was not consolidated. The hierarchs returned quietly, to Mexico City.
Religious contradictions offend sectors of the people
Faced with that historical fact that is blamed for the Catholic Church, it is equally serious, that this belief has elevated Father Miguel Agustín Pro, one of the instigators of the death of Álvaro Obregón. It is known that in the previous attack on the murder, the car in which the aggressors were, was from the father Pro with which they met in their parish. Despite this and that Father Pro was shot, the fact of a crime was forgiven by his church, and at the time he took him to the altars, where they worship him as if he were a saint. Thing he never did with Miguel Hidalgo and has refused to do with Monsignor Óscar Arnulfo Romero, of El Salvador, priests who fought for the freedom of the peoples. On the day in which the anniversary of the priest of Dolores is celebrated, all that trajectory that continued in the search to consolidate our independence, its great triumph in the mount of the crosses in the State of Mexico (another triumph such as that of Ignacio Zaragoza against powerful forces) and its great fall in Acatita de Baján in Coahuila is remembered when he was arrested and then murdered. They never imagined their murderers that their life in our history would be eternal.
