カナダのしょぼい「サタン」像*1と違って、メヒコのサタニズムはマジでやばい。目を瞑って「サタン」へ敬意を表することを拒否した５歳の男の子が実の母親にスプーンで目玉を抉り出された。
Priya Joshi “Mexico: Mother Jailed for 30 Years for Gouging Son's Eyes Out in Satanic Ritual” https://sg.news.yahoo.com/mexico-mother-jailed-30-years-gouging-sons-eyes-000729091.html
曰く、
これから２年経った2014年９月、母親だけでなく、「儀礼」に居合わせたおじ、おば、祖父母にも全て懲役30年の判決が下った。
Fernando Caleb Alvarado Rios, now aged seven, had his eyes gouged out in May 2012 by his mother, aunt, two uncles and grandparents after he refused to participate in a ritual in which the family called on Satan to protect them from an apocalypse.The family, from the town of Nezahualcoyotl, believed the ritual would bring them closer to Satan who would save them from a deadly earthquake.
The child was ordered to close his eyes out of respect but when he refused to do so his mother, Maria del Carmen Garcia Rios, used a spoon to gouge his eyes out.
ところで、墨西哥には日々「悪魔の陰謀」と戦い続けているカトリック神父の一団がいるのだった*2。
