Although the ELN defines itself as an atheist organization that follows the Marxism-Leninism principles, the dead in combat of the priest Camilo Torres activated one of the germinal principles of the Christian traditions to the inner of the group: Jesus sacrifice by humanity, it is a message translated to the social fight and converted in straggle premise. This sacrificial vision will permeate the distinct contexts , practices , ways of expression and lectures from the ELENOS world that bind itself into a significant and structural element of the identity of the group.
