“...pray to dead human...”

It seems that you don’t read your bible.

Mark 12:27.

Also: Faith justifies us. The justified go to heaven and are alive. So what is with the dead human comment?

On topic: the catholic liberation theology subscribers were skating on thin ground as socialism has strong leanings towards communistic atheism and substitutes the power of the collective and the state for the power of God.

Only God judges of course, and I have no idea where Romero stood on the spectrum, however I do know that John Paul II was gravely concerned about the Central American liberation theology movement as leaning towards atheism.

The leftists Catholics have to be handled carefully due the secular humanistic tendencies of the communist worker type movements. Dorothy Day had an abortion and Thomas Merton had an affair. Complete conversions occur, of course, with complete repentance; St. Augistine; however there has to be proof that the future saint lived an exemplary life after their conversion and changed their ways.

St. Augistine is supposed to be St. Augustine
