” “I am challenged by his call for us to live the Gospel – to find Christ among the poor, to love the immigrant as our neighbor and our friend.””
Liberation theology, here we come...
Oh please. He has to say this stuff, because Mahony is now going off to “minister to the immigrants” and obviously intends to undercut Gomez every step of the way.
This is the usual garbage where a left-wing Northern European American goes off to tell Catholic Spanish Americans how they really shouldn’t believe their religion and it’s really all about getting state benefits. But it’s a scenario very popular with the press.
Gomez is very orthodox. Orthodox Spaniards and Latin Americans are just about the most orthodox people in the Catholic universe.
Your liberation theology won’t come from Archbishop Gomez. Read the bottom links about him. Very conservative. Be happy!
