“The unity to combat the evils that afflict our country also demands honesty to call evil by name; courage not to normalize extortion or settle for” so it is here “; and, of course, temperance in the face of polarization that reduces everything to sides,” he said.
The archdiocese of Mexico recalled that, throughout history, Mexico demonstrated its ability to get up when it is decided to work together, with “plural unit”, maintaining the differences but without destroying.
This principle, the Church highlighted, is essential to preserve the life, dignity and future of new generations.
“This unit we invite from the Church does not cancel criticism, guides it. It asks us to lower the volume to shout and raise the frequency of the encounter. We claims to pass from” What touches me? ” To “What touches us together?” He said.
In addition, he stressed the importance of Mexicans adopting an attitude of meeting and dialogue, particularly with the most vulnerable young people and families. Therefore, the conversation spaces in the parishes will be reinforced.
In this sense, he called for action: he assured that the unit does not exclude constructive criticism, but that it guides it towards the common good. The Church is confident that, through small collective acts, the fear and social fracture that currently afflicts the country can be overcome.
