16th-century Friars Murdered over Polygamy
JoshuahsHouse- Polygamy News
This is the first time I have heard of catholics being persecuted for refusing to water down the teachings of the faith, especially in this context, where the opposite is actually correct. These friars were actually persecuted because they failed to uphold the validity of God's Word, and chose instead to teach the traditions of man...the doctrine of the Roman Catholic church.

"Death resulted because of their unwillingness to water down the
teaching of the faith," Boland said. "It's very timely in today's
culture, where marriage is under horrendous attacks."
"A key question is whether the Vatican will view the friars, who were
slain in a dispute over polygamy rather than because they were
Christians, as true martyrs."
