 Proceso 879
The death of the Jesuits of the UCA —Ignacio Ellacuria, Ignacio Martín-Baró, Amando López, Segundo Montes, Juan Ramón Moreno and Joaquín López y López, as well as Elba and Celina— was not a mere accident, a slip, an error.
It read this way: "Ignacio Ellacuría, considered as "the ideologue of the left", and another five Jesuits were assassinated on November 16, 1989 on the campus of the Central American University (UCA), called one of the "FMLN sanctuaries" during the armed aggression".
On diverse occasions, Ignacio Ellacuría expressed his conviction that the conflict in El Salvador, in spite of having taken on the dimension of an armed struggle, did not necessarily have to come to a military solution or the victory of one of the two sides in the conflict.

 Segundo Montes lecture
Ellacuria and his lay colleague, Roman Mayorga, envisioned and began to develop a "new kind of university in Central America," a university that put its whole self at the service of change, but as a university.
Ellacuria's university sought to be "one which puts itself at the service of the Kingdom of God based on an option for the poor." This was significantly different from the stereotypical Latin American university overrun by a militant left seeking political power.
Ellacuria's and Segundo Montes' vision was, as ours must be, hardly politically correctness, but rather the result of hard, demanding analysis, scholarly work and relentless courage.

From the early 1980s, Ellacuria and his associates were the single voice of reason in a deeply divided society.
It was because of their commitment to peace that Ellacuria and his associates were killed at the hands of an army that placed its institutional interests ahead of the common good.
Yet even the cold-blooded murder of these six unarmed men of peace and of their cook and her daughter, slaughtered to ensure that there would be no witnesses, did not arouse in the U.S. administration any ethical or moral outrage.

 THE LEGACY OF IGNACIO ELLACURÍA   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
In this article, we would like to remember Ignacio Ellacuría, one of those six Jesuits, commemorating him for his theological, philosophical and political reflections, as well as his biography, which remain extremely insightful to Christians and non Christians, even ten years after his death (1989-99).
Ellacuría was analytically sharp, playful with concepts, critically keen and ironic, a good friend, a fearful enemy, coherent in practical matters with his theoretical principles, confident, an admirer of great teachers, a defender of the weak one, sarcastic with the lukewarm, a good soccer player, and an unconditional follower of the Bilbao Athletic.
Remembering one of them, Ignacio Ellacuría, we are not so much interested in admiring his intellectual capacity or his ability to perform, but in recognizing that the path he initiated was valid and that it can be applied to other historical situations.
