krisek - Oct, 13 2010 05:10pm Interesting. But I think that at that time state and church cruelty was rather common across the world, regadless of place or belief... jorgesanchez - Oct, 14 2010 03:10am Krisek: next door to that church (I assisted to the Mass service offered by a Mexican priest), there is a monument devoted to all the martyred, including children. First they were forced to walk, during months, from Kyoto to Nagasaki, just to be crucified. The first saint in the history of Mexico was crucified together with those martyrs in Nagasaki, that is why there are always mexican priests in that church.
