Silvio Báez, the auxiliary bishop of Managua, issued a public statement this Sunday regarding the moral responsibility of Christians living under authoritarian regimes. Speaking from exile, Báez asserted that remaining silent or passive in the face of dictatorships effectively makes believers complicit in the actions of those governments.
The bishop characterized these political structures as destructive to democracy. His message serves as a call to action for the religious community to reject passivity when confronted with political systems that undermine democratic institutions.
