This is what we, today's Cristeros, will do 100 years after our holy war

The centenary of the Cristero War calls us to restore the faith and Christian identity of the nation

In a few more months, in 2026, we will commemorate a century since the start of the Cristero War (1926-1929), a conflict that marked Mexico's history with the blood of 200,000 Catholic martyrs, murdered by an anti-Christian Callista regime that sought to eradicate the people's faith.

This centenary can't go unnoticed: it is an opportunity to reclaim the memory of the Cristeros and demand justice from a State that still refuses to acknowledge its guilt. The Cristero War was a struggle of legitimate defense, for the human right to religious freedom.

The war cry: "Long live Christ the King and Holy Mary of Guadalupe!" shook our Cristero lands in large Mexican territories, especially in Jalisco, Guanajuato, Michoacán, Querétaro, Zacatecas, and Mexico City, and today it inspires us to rebuild the country from the Christian values that represent 88% of the population.

First, we demand that the Mexican government of Claudia Sheinbaum—who is atheist, communist, and Jewish, but during the campaign sought support from the Pope and wore a skirt with the Virgin of Guadalupe—apologize for the massacre of 200,000 Cristeros.

We can't tolerate the hypocrisy of her mentor Andrés Manuel López Obrador, who on March 25, 2019, sent a letter to Pope Francis and the King of Spain demanding apologies for the Conquest, calling it an "invasion" that brought "atrocities" and "humiliations."

Meanwhile, what about the crimes of his own ideological regime? AMLO—grandson of Spaniards on one side—acts like a Luciferian Masonic idolater close to indigenous supremacism, and remains silent about the Cristero genocide while selectively pointing a flaming finger at the past that suits his leftist narrative.

This double standard is intolerable: in 2026, the State must acknowledge its responsibility and apologize to the families of the martyrs, and to Catholics in general, honoring their sacrifice for the faith. The Cristeros did not want land, power, money, or fame: they only defended God, the sacred. For this, they are our true national heroes, the only ones. They were religious, humble people, with no other reward than to die for Christ the King. The federals were mercenaries, and Calles was a decadent Mason with socialist ideas who wanted to destroy Catholicism.

Another act of hypocrisy by the AMLO government was the adoption of none other than Quetzalcoatl as a national emblem in 2021, during the commemorations of the 500 years since the fall of Tenochtitlán. On August 13, 2021, López Obrador said that this symbol was a "tribute to our pre-Hispanic roots," overlooking that Quetzalcoatl, the Aztec "god," was associated with a culture that offered human sacrifices daily. The Aztecs, known for their cannibalism and inventors of pozole with human meat, extracted still-beating hearts on their altars, satanic practices that have nothing to do with the values of a predominantly Christian people. With this decision, the socialist government violated the principle of a secular State, using our taxes to promote a pagan cult while marginalizing Christianity, the faith of the vast majority of Mexicans.

In response, we propose that in 2026 the national emblem be Anacleto González Flores, known as "the Teacher." Anacleto, beatified by the Catholic Church, was a cultured writer, a journalist, a layman who defended religious freedom and justice without wielding a weapon.

He was martyred in 1927 by the Callista regime, and his life is an example of patriotism and dedication. This man, originally from Jalisco, organized peaceful resistance through the Popular Union and founded Catholic associations that promoted education and the common good, showing that faith can change a nation without resorting to violence. Honoring Anacleto as a symbol of 2026 would be an act of justice and a reminder of the values that Mexico needs to recover.

We also can't ignore the silence of institutions that claim to advocate for human rights. The Memory and Tolerance Museum dedicates spaces to the Holocaust, Rwanda, and femicides, but doesn't say a word about the massacre of Catholics during the Cristero War. This is unbelievable and unacceptable. We demand the urgent installation of a permanent room that narrates the persecution of the Cristeros, and from now on we will begin collecting signatures to make this demand a reality. The memory of our martyrs can't continue to be invisibilized by a progressive narrative that hates everything that smells of Christianity.

In the economic sphere, we propose structural adjustments based in part on the Social Doctrine of the Church (SDC), which promotes family economy and private property as pillars of a just society. The clientelist welfare of Morena, with programs like the "supports" that enslave the poor in exchange for votes, has failed miserably. The SDC teaches us to build a supportive family economy at the service of the person, not the State, fostering private initiative and solidarity. In 2026, we want Mexican families to be the center of the economy, not the bureaucrats of the 4T who squander our taxes on propaganda and early campaigns while the people sink into misery.

Education is another essential priority. During the Cristero War, Catholics fought for the right to educate their children according to their faith, against a State that imposed a secular, anti-Christian education and—with Cárdenas, in the second Cristero War—socialist.

In this context, we can't forget the historical debt to the Cristeros. During the Cristero War, the government massacred entire communities, burned churches, and desecrated religious symbols, while the faithful resisted with rosaries and scapulars as their only weapons. This persecution was no accident: it was a systematic project to impose an anti-Christian State that despised Mexico's Guadalupan religious roots. In 2026, we must demand that this truth be taught in schools and publicly recognized, so that such an atrocity is never repeated.

Today, that danger remains latent: basic education never mentions the Cristero War, but it does idolize Juárez, Villa, or Zapata (a trio of rascals), and public universities are a breeding ground for degeneration and are infested with woke and socialist ideologies that corrupt the youth.

We propose defunding these institutions that promote abortion, atheism, and the progressive-globalist agenda, and redirecting those resources to an education that forms free citizens, with Christian and patriotic values. In 2026, education must be a trench of resistance against secularism that seeks to erase God from our lives.

Additionally, we will push for structural changes in the public space. We demand renaming streets, avenues, and the Benito Juárez Borough in Mexico City, which bears the name of a Mason who betrayed Mexico's Christian values by imposing anti-clerical laws. Instead, we propose names of Cristero heroes like Anacleto González Flores, Father Pro, and Joselito Sánchez del Río, saints who gave their lives for the faith without shedding others' blood. These changes are not mere symbolism: they are a reminder that Mexico must recover its Christian identity in the face of the progressive agenda that disfigures it. We ask for the support of Jorge Romero, president of the PAN, for this cultural counter-revolution.

We also propose the construction of monuments that honor the Cristeros. Anacleto, Father Pro, and José Sánchez del Río (Joselito) should have statues in public squares, as symbols of a peaceful resistance that transformed history. Goodness, because today you lift a stone and find 10 statues of Juárez, and he was a traitorous Mason who ate priests and also wanted to sell part of the country.

Father Pro, martyred in 1927, was a priest who brought the Eucharist to the persecuted, while Joselito, murdered at 14 years old in 1928, became an icon of youthful bravery. These monuments will be a light for new generations, reminding them that faith and love for the homeland go hand in hand.

Christian unity is the pillar of this crusade. Catholics, evangelicals, and all who believe in Christ must unite so that 2026 is the year of Mexico's spiritual restoration. We can't allow the divisions fostered by the government to weaken us in the face of secularism and socialism that still seek to erase God from our homeland. The Cristero War taught us that united faith can move mountains; today, that same faith must be our banner to rebuild a nation that has been devastated by narco-corruption and apostasy.

The Cristero struggle also calls us to defend religious freedom in the present. Today, the 4T government continues to attack the Church with policies that promote abortion, gender ideology, and LGBT and feminist supremacism. While AMLO worships Quetzalcoatl and its human sacrifices, Christians are marginalized and ridiculed. This is not a secular State, it is open persecution. In 2026, we must raise our voices and demand a Mexico where the people's faith is respected, not trampled by a degenerate elite that despises our beliefs.

Finally, the centenary of the Cristero War must be a turning point. It is not just about remembering the past, but about building a future where Christian values are the foundation of our society. Education, the economy, culture, and politics must be at the service of truth and justice, not foreign ideologies that divide us (right, Marx Arriaga and communist friends?).

In 2026, may the cry of "Long live Christ the King and Holy Mary of Guadalupe!" once again resonate in every corner of Mexico, from the squares to the hearts of Mexicans. It is time for the Cristero War to inspire a new spiritual awakening to save our homeland!
