Another Honduran institution opposes Zelaya:

Honduran bishops oppose Zelaya's return, urge respect for rule of law
July 06, 2009

The Catholic bishops of Honduras have urged the people of that country "to overcome emotional reactions and to seek the truth" in the midst of a political crisis that began with the ouster of President Manuel Zelaya.

In their July 3 statement, which was delivered to a television audience by Cardinal Oscar Rodriguez Maradiaga of Tegucigalpa, the Honduran hierarchy steered clear of partisan politics, but insisted that the rule of law should be upheld. The bishops called attention to the fact that President Zelaya was removed from office on the basis of a valid court order. They noted that "the institutions of the Honduran democratic state are valid and that what is has executed in juridical-legal matters has been rooted in law."
