The Cristero Rebellion has been characterized at times as an attempt by some in the Catholic Church to recover the power the church had enjoyed in the era before the Reform laws.
Kristero sacelšanās dažreiz tiek raksturota kā katoļu baznīcas mēģinājums atgūt varu un ietekmi, kāda tai bija pirms likumiem par reformu.
