This Saint has become the "patron saint of the drug war" in Mexico, revered by criminals who pray to her for protection. Often a decorated skull is used to portray her. She's seen as the one who accepts everyone regardless of sex, age, race or orientation. And hence is a favourite of marginalized people in US ans Mexico. Her offerings include tequila, tobacco smoke, chocolate.
However Vatican condemns this saintly figure, since from their perspective Christ defeated death, his last enemy through resurrection. Hence, veneration of a figure of death is tantamount to dishonour of Christ.
Who is this saintly figure am i talking about?
