During the civil and military dictatorship in Brazil (1964-1985) there was a violence increase in the Baixada Fluminense. During this period, a Catholic movement inspired by Liberation Theology was developed in the city of Nova Iguaçu, which was easily spreaded alongside the poor people, against the will of the dictatorship and in defense of Human Rights. This movement had as central figure the bishop of that city: Dom Adriano Hypólito. The objective of this work is to analyze and discuss the ideas of this Catholic bishop with other authors and researchers who have dedicated themselves to the question of religiosity and social formation in Brazil, paying special attention to the issue of violence in the 1970s and 1980s, pointing out that the words of Dom Adriano can help in the understanding that Violence is linked to historical factors, misguided public policies and neglection. The sources of this work are from the diocesan newspaper of Nova Iguaçu called A Folha, interviews given by Dom Adriano, some articles of the period and two documentaries: Nova Iguaçu, the city of my eyes (2003) and Diocese of New Iguaçu: 50 years of mission (2013). In order to deal with my sources, I used the method of reading and analyzing Dom Adriano's speeches with works that refer to the social, spatial and ideological formations of the Catholic Church, Brazil and the Baixada Fluminense. An analysis was then made of the pastoral work of the Church of Nova Iguaçu in the 1970s and 1980s, when the bishop assumed a political position of resistance to the dictatorship and denunciations of the actions of the death squads in the region. The reason behind this work was produced lies in the proposal of discussing on the role of religiosity in brazilian society, since it is important to rediscuss a Church that, at a certain historical moment, has positioned Itself between the collectivity and individualism, sought to strengthen community ties and fought against the violence covered and often undertaken by the State
