I’m of course no fan of Obama’s meddling in just about everything. But to say that the Church’s taking action is of no use to the many victims is, I think, wrong. If the Church so wanted to spare a dying perpetrator, then I suggest it could have looked further up its hierarchy to whomever turned the offendingly blind eye.
Article: Obama, Black Liberation Theology, and Karl Marx
May 28, 2008
Just one nugget from the Sacred Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, "Instruction on Certain Aspects of the ‘Theology of Liberation': "...it would be illusory and dangerous to ignore the intimate bond which radically unites them liberation theologies), and to accept elements of the Marxist analysis without recognizing its connections with the (Marxist) ideology, or to enter into the practice of the lass-struggle and of its Marxist interpretation while failing to see the kind of totalitarian society to which this process slowly leads."--Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger, Prefect, now Pope Benedict XVI; written in 1984
Understanding that black liberation theology is Marxism dressed up to look like Christianity helps explain why there is no conflict between Cone's "Christianity" [i.e. 'reverend Wright's thing] and Farrakhan's "Nation of Islam." They are two prophets in the same philosophical (Marxist) pod, merely using different religions as backdrops for their black-power aims.

Type alert: the third sentence of the second paragraph should begin: “Naturally, none of the stories, including the initial one in the Times, bothers to mention....”
Where is the evidence that “Obama is behind recent attacks...”? Is the author just guessing? This the kind of claptrap I expect from the far-left.
Good article.
Nobama vs Nopopa?
That’s not pugilism... more like anti-christ mud wrestling ala Rage TV and the creators of “Bum Fights”.
Wouldn’t surprise me in the least, and he’d be egged on by his ‘Catholic’ supporters who have never liked Pope Benedict, because they had too many run-ins with him when he was Josef Ratzinger, and was head of the office in charge of making sure Church teachings were being followed.
It is not only about Obamacare. It is about the Church’s refusal to embrace the whole secular humanist agenda.
No one denies that abuse happened but if people can not see the true motive over articles such as this they need to consider the source.
The NYT promotes and approves of behavior and policy that is harmful to children.
fubo
Much more than a little plausible.
Daily Mail headline: 3-28-10
Pope Hits Back as Protesters Call for Him to Step Down.
excerpt: The Pope has been accused of ignoring concerns that American priest Father Lawrence Murphy and German cleric Father Peter Hullerman abused young boy...(also Ireland, Germany and Austria.)
protester sign... Pope protected paedophile priests.
Ironic... America government is funding viagra for paedophiles and rapists.
Two can play at that game, can't they?
Pope Benedict should demand that Obama resign.
