As I’ve said earlier, he has a strong record of opposition to Liberation Theology during his time as a bishop in South America.

“Religion is the opiate of the people, so let’s give them opium.” 1959
Would you agree with the statement below?
Liberation Theology was invented by the KGB to subvert the Roman Catholic Church. Soviet agents were dispatched to Latin America to infect the church and spread it among the people. The doctrine asked the poor and downtrodden to revolt and form a Communist government, not in the name of Marx or Lenin, but in continuing the work of Jesus Christ, a revolutionary who opposed economic and social discrimination.
