How about we investigate this one?
I would not write off Ms Rivas based on one reported incident. However I am very curious what she or Dr. Ricardo Castanon have to say in response. Would anyone try contacting him? If you view my other post it appears he is not living a cloistered life and it may be possible to find him.

I put the text image through ocr program and manually corrected as many errors as I could, which was difficult since I don’t know Spanish. Then I put it through Google translate:
Fishermen O.- if farmers do not
If Jesus compared ordinarily the Kingdom of Heaven with elements of agriculture , the most logical thing would have called men of the field for this ministry. However , He called these fishermen and told them they would be fishers of men. Why not tell them that they would be tenants?
The reason may be that everyone does his job very differently , and Jesus needs people with the character of fishermen and not how to be a farmer .
The farmer, all still dark morning , is heading down the path that leads to your site . Even this path trodden by his tears come and go through the same place. Even their animals alone and go back to the field. Your itinerary is routine . Aecorre always the same way their ancestors. His children and nielos used the same path.
The fisherman case is very different. In the sea there are no roads or sidewalks. There will always be new paths . Waves are never the same . Every day wind is different and you have to invent a new way.
Every morning the fisherman to waterfront and asks God, and now, where ? Where are the fish are today? . The fisherman every day with the Psalmist :
" Show me , Lord , thy ways .
Make your path may encounter " : Psalm 25 , 4 . .
