Finally the priest shows his real face

The book is getting to the end, and each time we see the real intensions that the priest has. I personallly think that every human being likes to have money and most will do the imposible to get it, but what a really think is not true is that the priest way of thinking is like that. What my family taught me was a very different thing, due to the fact that the priest are represeting god, so they have to care about the people and not to much care about their own interest in this case money, for me the priest have to think more in the people.
In this part of the book I can see that the real intentions of the priest is to get some money of all, a great example was that the people had to pay so they colud baptized their kids, he did not care how much money the people ha, or if they were able to pay does amounts of money. I think that you dont have to really pay to get baptized, because I think that if you are catholic you can get baptized without any cost because is the church oblogations to gather the people that wants to join the church.
In other cases we see that the priest tells that he is using the money for the school teachers, but they are many doughs or unless I have many doughts on believing on this factor. In other situations the priest have help communities and have give them his services but he has charge for them, for me this is terrible because the church is for receving people that need help, but the church is not to help but at the same time, to charge for the help. Most of the people believe in the church, I do not believe to much in church , because I think that priest are only their to take advantage of the people, in what I really believe in is in god, but I think that the church is an identity that takes people money from lomg time ago.

What about the priest?

In this chapter I tried to discover what does the priest really thinks and feels. His actions and the way he acts shows us that maybe he has two way of acting depending on the circumstances that the priest was in. Also in this chapter we can analize that the priest is exhausted, because they confuss him with other person, and released again, the priest seems to be, totally exhausted. In this chapter we can see the other personality of the priest, and we can see that the priest sometimes likes to help the people, but in other ocassions not, maybe because he is tired, or maybe because he helps the people by interest, certainly I do not know if the priest is a good or an convenient person.
“One of the Fathers has told us that joy always depends on pain. Pains is part of joy. ........." I have many questions if the priest is good or bad, but what is certain enough if that the priest love his job, and the only thing that he wants to do is to expand christianity in this harsh period that Mexico was passing by. The priest works very hard because he hates and he wants to fight against the Red Shirts, and the way he does this is to put in the people that what really minds is going t heaven that is the total happiness you can get. From this part, I have a lot of question regarding to heaven. Heaven does exist? How you are chosen to go to heaven? How does heaven looks like? But I think that each person has to believe in an after world and also in a supreme justice or leader in my case I believe in god, but not in the church. In the book heaven wasa place were you do not suffer because you have to pay taxes, or the red shirts, the only thing that boders in heaven is your happiness.
In this chapter the priest show us the two different faces he has, but it also show us that sometimes he is a good person and sometimes not, the only thing that I have clarity on, is that the priest works for the people of Mexico.
