Elements within the Catholic Church have long been identified as
being sympathetic to communism and particularly to the Castro/Che
inception of communism still causing trouble in Central and South
America. We could not understand back here at home why priests and nuns
where being murdered in the Central and South American conflicts, it
was shocking and disturbing. But what many found out in latter years
about those murders was more shocking and disturbing than the actual
murders themselves.

The revelation that Catholic priests and nuns where giving aid,
comfort, and material support to the communists was, by the time
learned I learned of it, not surprising at all! Usually as long any
clergy stays directly out of any conflict the combatants of either side
will leave them alone. But when said clergy venture into the conflict
via this Liberation Theology tripe for instance, then all bets are off
from then on!

The Catholic Church throughout it’s history has walked a thin line
in dealing with oppressive governments and tyrants, many times making
choices that end up being deals with he devil himself, something which
Jesus adamantly opposed. This is mostly because the Church is run and
staffed by weak and fallible humans clinging to an old religious
bureaucracy that has outlived it’s usefulness becoming the thing that
Jesus hated and detested most, a pompous bureaucratic religious
edifice! Just like the Temple in Jerusalem that he railed against
because of what it had become! What else can we expect from an
organization so rife with all the ills of any modern day
socio-political behemoth!

So I am painting Liberation Theology with a broad brush, because it
does cover a broad spectrum, a broad spectrum of liberal, communist,
socialist, leftist ideologies! In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus
Sancti, Amen!
