Assault of the federal government to the laity
We need to liberate us of our prejudices toward the indigenous
Mexico. – In Mexico the assaults on lay state are common thing of every day and the hatred of the extreme straight is touched to daily, but also of the same heart of the federal government. The writer Fernando Del Paso considers to Luis Villoro, in his book "The ideological process of the independence revolution" published in 1953, when had 31 years; one of the fundamental books to understand to our country. Fernando Del Paso referred: "to put to him end to this battle, is needed a government that finish of understanding that the laity, far from to assault a religion, protects them to all, and protects by equal to all the believers and the not believing, including to the own State chiefs".In his conference was indicating that the New Spain was fighting for be emancipated of Spain. It is worthy of be mentioned that in that time was happened the news of the Illustration in the intellectual circles of the New Spain. However the theories of the French Revolution and those that gave ideology to our war by the emancipation, is very few relationship. We need to release us of our prejudicesDel Paso abounded: "the independence of the Spanish wreath was resulting indispensable to the natives from the New Spain. But not the independence of Mexico, but of one of the many “Mexicos” there is and continues having. Of all they was one alone the one which cut the links that were making it subject of Spain in their own territory; the Mexico of the withies". After the Independence remained "a consolidated white class and dominant, a few black race inhabitants and an immense American indigenous majority".The indigenous were not deposited of the court of the links with Europe, were not liberated of nothing neither of nobody, nor yesterday neither today; they continue abandon, denigrated, discriminated, and they’re dead of hunger. But continue glamorous with the radiances of a past and wonderful culture, the natives continue praising it as if it would be their own culture, and presume it without knowing it in depth. Actually we have liberated us of the Spanish nation, but we followed bundles by many something else more. It more interesting of this independence is that not have liberated us of our own prejudices, of the prejudices toward the indigenous of this country. Currently there is a favorable trend toward the rights of the indigenous peoples.Paradoxical caused that it Spain was seeking be emancipated of FranceIt is considered on the part of some historians the weight of the United States independence had in our Independence war, but the relationship is few or nothing, though seem the contrary. Furthermore the admiration that could have the Mexican insurgents by the neighboring country would have been transformed into deception by the territorial spoliation of more than half of the national territory. Also it recognized that the emergence of the pre-Hispanic recoveries and the slight by the colonial period in the official history that forged us as the Mexican culture of the century XXI, was given in Mexico of incipient way, once achieved the independence, in the century XIX, and not as of the revolution of 1910. The rhetorical arguments that they have been exposed in favor of to ignore the three centuries of the Colony, of our Hispanic European inheritance and to recognize only the indigenous inheritance, it is cause of our conflicting Mexican personality.Representative that it Dwell them would be an icon of the popular revolutionary conscienceOf the interviews and written presented by the different religions in Mexico, with motive of the reform of the article 40 constitutional, we choose that Hugo Valdemar Romero, directing from social communication of the archbishopric from Mexico, indicated that the lay State in Mexico, "makes time that it is firmly consolidated". He noted that "nobody discusses the convenient and healthy separation of the Church and the State, but yes is questionably that is understood by lay an attitude irrationally antireligious, specifically anti-Catholic, that intends to regulate and to submit to the Church in what is concerning to their evangelizing and social mission". (sic) concerning the opinion of Arturo Farela, president of the National Confraternity and Evangelical Christian Churches, we consider that in a "Mexico modern and democratic what is relevant is not to put muzzle to some Mexican; must go toward before and not toward back in legislative matter; Mexico must advance in the freedoms and not to restrict, we don’t want laws type crab.
