Bishops Angry: Francis' Natives Occupy Church Land
This isn't an isolated case. Another huge occupation in Guernica was only evicted today at dawn. The perpetrators clashed with the police. 35 were arrested and dozens wounded.
The bishops released a strong statement saying that nothing justifies "intrusion and violence at the cost of lives and rights of others" and that "the Church doesn't endorse the occupation."
Nevertheless, Francis dreams of natives being role models of the world claiming that they are "not opposed to progress, yet theirs is a different notion of progress, often more humanistic than the modern culture (Fratelli Tutti 220)."
