Some indigenous Mexicans in this area still have some left over Mayan sympathies....as if all the other stuff wasn't enough confusion. Plus, you add superstitions and Catholic mysticism into the mix...recipe for religious chaos. Plus there is extreme political chaos and the almost certain lack of formal education. I can't even imagine what goes on in more remote areas of the state. Edited January 15, 2016 by D-Dawn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God is a God of diversity, and I find it very beautiful. What I take issue with is defiance of God Most High and persecution of His saints. The devil is at work. We need to stand strong in unison and raise a standard of prayer so that as a flood God would raise the standard against him as he comes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because Mexico is predominately a Catholic nation, that does not mean there is one "catholicism" in Mexico ... Just because those called "catholics" are involved, that does not even mean they are part of the Catholic Church. If the Catholic Church counts them as members, they are part of the Catholic Church, a church which includes "pro choice" Democrats and Jesuits who practice Liberation Theology, especially in South and Central America. Whether or not they are Christians is another question entirely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently no one has heard anything official from either the Catholic Church or the Mexican gov't, whose local political leaders are directly responsible for what happens in Chiapas and its other rural states.

I don't. As I said, you could call the Vatican. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
