Hi, mg. It would be interesting to ask the priest to help you understand his words and the thoughts behind them. I can understand that you felt protective of your fellow worshipers, and the only way I can see for you to know the intent, meaning, and consequence of what you observed is to get further information from the priest as well as to ask for clarification from some of your Latino fellow members.

Feel free to send me a PM if you'd care to talk about the issue further.

Warm regards,

Maeve
