World.-Pope Francis said that Mexico is being punished by the devil, in the face of the growing wave of violence that plagues the country. “The Devil has a quarrel with Mexico, it’s true. Persecution of Christians who are persecutors who in other countries of America did not get so virulent why in Mexico? Something happened there. Like the Devil had a quarrel with Mexico, didn’t he? Because if not, so much is not explained, “said the pontiff in an interview with the Mexican television station TELEVISA. Being questioned about the Council that would give the government of Andrés Manuel Lopez Obrador to stop the escalation of homicides in Mexican territory, Francisco advised the president to specify a policy of dialogue and pacts.
After this response, reporter Valentina Alazraki asked the pontiff her opinion on the pacts with the narco-traffickers as an alternative to stop the violence in Mexico. Francisco ruled out this option. “It sounds bad to me. It is as if I to help the evangelization of a country, pact with the devil, there are pacts that can not be done. The political pact must be done for the good of the country, “he said. For a couple of years, however, the testimonies of Mexican priests who have been forced to go with the leaders of organized crime to ask for a cessation of violence in the communities in which they work have been released.
During the conversation the pontiff criticized the construction of walls and advocated for the protection of migrants on a global level. “I don’t know what happens when this new culture comes in to defend territories by making walls. We already met one, the Berlin, that enough headaches brought us and enough suffering… But the man is the only animal that falls twice in the same hole, “he said. In his view, the real defence is dialogue, growth, welcome, education and integration for people who are forced to emigrate.
On recent allegations of sexual abuse by priests of the Catholic Church Francis mentioned that they continue to work on these cases respecting the presumption of innocence and discreet work. “The pope does not have to publish every day what he is doing. There are cases that are long. My policy is to open processes, in this case of healing, healing, correction, “he said. Just earlier this month the Vatican imposed a duty to denounce to the ecclesiastical authorities the episodes of pedophilia that are known and narrowed the vigilance on the bishops and other religious. The regulation, which signifies a turning point in the Catholic Church, will enter into force from 1 June.
In the interview Francisco endorsed his rejection of abortion and marriages between homosexuals. “Abortion is not a religious problem in the sense that because I am a Catholic I cannot abort, it is a human problem. It’s a problem of eliminating a human life. Point. Is it fair to eliminate a human life to solve a problem? “he asked. At another time in the conversation the pontiff pointed out that homosexual people have the right to be in the family but called homosexual marriage “incongruence.”
