As I write this from a reality, I'm reading and analyzing the Constitution. I think it is the duty of all Ecuadorians do.

In the nearly nine years as a columnist for this newspaper I have not entered politics and now I do not want to. I believe that these lines are not political, just want to be a message to a friend of many years, the Lord President of the Republic.

With pain I've heard and read statements, which I transcribe now.: "... the oligarchy has also pelucones priests in the pulpit promote discredit to the Constitution ... if this happens, stand up and say: Father, you are a liar!, no right to do that. Is betraying his role as pastor, I come to do politics in this Church "

later said:" Beware the Church is aligning me with certain groups and political parties. Be careful, because the oligarchy and the pelucones also have their bandages. "

Dear friend, first guided me always, as did Don Bosco, with the "policy Our Father, "which is the policy of the Kingdom. A kingdom of justice, truth, brotherhood, life, peace and love.

Secondly, guide my life to Christ's words when he says "The truth shall make you free." Nobody owns the truth, wanting to be the biggest mistake a person can commit.

I said to the faithful, I personally will not say whether they should vote YES or NO vote. We should read the Constitution, the voice of our pastors and vote according to our conscience, yes, vote according to Christian principles and values \u200b\u200bthat are inalienable and "not negotiable", as Benedict XVI says

But please, do NOT threaten us! Do not repeat the example of countries and presidents friends who have threatened, offended, insulted the Bishops and priests, and what is worse, now one of them supports a parallel church.

not believe that threats will silence the Church, priests and lay people believe their faith and its principles. Instead, the voice will sound more courage, strength and clarity.

Precisely, these days we are celebrating the fortieth anniversary of the proclamation of the encyclical "Humane Vitae" of Paul VI. Document that defends life and that is light and north of our Christian principles on this issue
