Beatification Process for Bishop who Allowed Indigenious Youths to Touch his Private Parts
Blessed Nudism
“Blessed nudism of the Huaorani, who do not need rags to safeguard their norms of natural morality!”
“They lived naked, and I too was often naked like them.”
“God has wished to preserve in this people the way of life, natural morality as in Paradise before sin.”
Homosexualized Coexistence with Youths
“I observed the ease, or rather the almost generalized practice as something ritual, of arousing one another among the males frequently… along with other games of a homosexual aspect in their long family gatherings.”
“Starting from their reality required me to bathe with them or like them, or in the presence of young people and children, with complete naturalness; intentionally to perform the full washing of an adult male; to allow the satisfaction of natural curiosity in touching and seeing how we differ…”
“One of the adolescents tried to excite me and I prevented it with smiling firmness.”
“Peigo… appeared to be without a hammock and came near my bed. On previous days I had rejected him, fearing his gestures and provocative homosexual attempts. This time I had another understanding of ‘accepting everything except sin’ and shared the bed, lying naked under the same mosquito net.”
“The youths were more playful than ever, abounding in words and gestures that represented sexual union, allowing themselves to touch genitals. This time they especially bothered me, until they cheerfully verified that virile reactions are identical between us and the Huaorani… I tried not to make any drama and made an effort to act naturally, laugh with them, and dissuade them from the game.”
“The missionary should not wait to be stripped, but would do better to anticipate doing so in order to show appreciation and esteem for the culture of the Huaorani people.”
