Facts.

Saint Oscars Romero’s story

The night before Oscar was murdered while celebrating ooooooooooooooooo Mass, archbishop Oscar Romero of san salvador said on

The radio “I would like to say in a special way to all the people in the army, and in particular to the troops of the national guard, the police, and the garrisons. Brothers, you belong to your own people. You kill your own brother peasants; and in face of order to kill that is given by a man, the law of God that say “Do not kill!” should prevail.

“No soldier is obliged to obey an order counter to the law of God. No one has to comply with an immoral law. It is the time now that you recover your conscience and obey its dictates rather than the command of sin. . . . Therefore, in the name of God, and in the name of this long-suffering people, whose laments rise to heaven every day more tumultuous, I beseech you, I beg you, I command you! In the name of God: ‘Cease the repression!’”

Said Saint Oscar Romero.
