CRISTÓBAL DE LAS CASAS, Chiapas - Mexican prelates were reviewing
translations of the texts of the Catholic Mass into four indigenous languages
of the southern state of Chiapas and will send them on to the Vatican for its
approval, Bishop Felipe Arizmendi said.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>The
bishops to date have translated the texts of the Mass into Tzotzil, Tzeltal,
Chol and Tojolabal, four main languages of Chiapas that are spoken by some 1
million of Mexico´s 13 million Indians, said Arizmendi, head of the Indian
Pastoral Mission of the Mexican Episcopate.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Arizmendi
said the Catholic Church must not continue its practice of imposing Spanish
on indigenous communities, adding that it is necessary to bring them the
"word of God" in their own languages.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>The
bishop said 56 indigenous languages are spoken in <st1:country-region w:st="on">Mexico</st1:country-region>,
but "there is only one approved translation of the Catholic ceremonies
into an indigenous language, and that´s Tarahumara way up in the northern
highlands, but it hasn´t been officially approved by the <st1:country-region
w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Vatican</st1:place></st1:country-region>."</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>He
said the Catholic Church has not valued indigenous tongues, contrasting that
neglect with efforts by Protestants to reach out to the indigenous in <st1:country-region
w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Mexico</st1:place></st1:country-region>.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>"Protestant
brothers have made translations into almost all of the 56 indigenous
languages that there are in <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Mexico</st1:place></st1:country-region>,
while Catholic Bibles have only been translated into Tzeltal and another into
Tzotzil, but that was in collaboration with the Protestants," Arizmendi
said.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
