Victor had a notoriously poor relationship with the Vatican Church.
Especially during the "War at the Top" incited by Zambada, the Mexican Cardinal once pleaded with him for mercy and was bluntly rebuffed by Victor.
These sectarian personnel were inherently petty, and in their report to the Pope, they commented on the Northern Governor as follows.
"This is an extremely faithless person, one who disrespects God immensely. In the Middle Ages, he should have been burned at the stake!"
It was Pope John Paul II who hoped to maintain restraint during the conference, to avoid conflict with the local authorities, but this conflict-resolving Pope was too old…
He could hardly suppress some of the more irritable rank-and-file personnel.
When Mexico's "Federal New Law" regarding religion was disseminated, it sparked widespread dissatisfaction!
The False Pope Hadrian VII, located in Washington, U.S.A, vehemently condemned Victor as a traitor during a rally.
