A parish priest in the town of Quintanilla Riopico, Burgos, went viral for including in his Sunday sermon a fragment of one of the most famous songs of Extremewhose singer Robe Iniesta died a few days ago.
During his speech, the priest, named Eduardo Dorado, He took out his cell phone and played a fragment of the song Love, love, love and develop the soulbased on a poem by Manolo Chinato.
“That they only taught you hatred and greed / I want all of us, as brothers / to share love, tears and smiles / When I was a child, they imposed customs on me / They educated me to be a rich man / But now I prefer to be Indian / Than an important lawyer / We must leave the paved social path / Because our hooves get stuck there / You must fly free to the sun and the wind / Share the love you have within you” says the fragment of the song.
“I wanted to pay homage to Robe and Manolo. Look, a song by Extremoduro. I’m not a fan of them, I like their music, but This is what the Second Vatican Council called the seeds of speech.“, explained the priest to the parishioners.
He referred to a patristic idea of Saint Justin, to affirm that God sowed seeds of truth, values and goods in all cultures and religionswhich are the reflection of the Word (Christ) and which, according to the Council, the Church must recognize, purify and elevate.
What the priest wanted to express, according to the people present in this media, is that, Even if they are neither believers nor Catholics, there are people who, with their words, also sow what Jesus once said.: do good and love one another.
