The true story of the Christeros is fascinating, and the heroism of the peasants is breathtaking.

The Masons played a nefarious role in the persecution of the Church (the bombing of the tilma occurred in 1917), and Wilson provided arms to the Mexican government:

John Lind, one of Woodrow Wilson’s advisors,
rejoiced over the news: “Great news! The more priests they kill in
Mexico, the happier I shall be!” An American pastor, indignant about
the outraging of the nuns in Vera Cruz, received this reply from Wilson’s
personal representative: “After prostitution, the worst thing in Mexico
is the Catholic Church. Both must disappear!”13

On May 28, Calles received the Masonic medal of merit
from the hands of the Great Commander of the Scottish rite in Mexico. On
July 12, the following communique appeared in the press: “International
Masonry accepts responsibility for everything that is happening in Mexico,
and is preparing to mobilize all its forces for the methodic, integral
application of the agreed upon program for this country.”18

Hmm...didn’t know Peter O’Toole was still alive. I will have to catch the movie though, that period of time has always interested me.

Go to the website for the movie forgreaterglory.com and watch the trailer. (I’d provide the link but I don’t know if it’s permitted.)

At the 1:23 mark ... it’s OBAMA! He stole that line.
