A commie/Muslim President and a commie/Catholic Pope - wunderbar!
This can not end well.
“the Latin American-inspired Catholic theology advocating for the poor”
the writer is proficient at stating the obvious while denying the truth
Liberation theology is nothing other than the Marxist dialtectic written into the Christian message, period.
Now, I suppose we are supposed to be surprised of this Marxist hero’s welcome at the Vatican. I’m not.

The lefty Roman Catholics I know absolutely love Pope Francis.
As a Roman Catholic I continue to have my doubts....
A civil war within the Church continues to grow...
Great
FWIW, the story before he was elected Pope was that Francis had a strong record in opposition to Liberation Theology. Of course, that’s just what was said about him, I don’t know it directly.
Also, the Pope doesn’t seem to have invited this guy to be an honored speaker. Gerhard Mueller did. This wouldn’t be the first time that the press pretended that “the Vatican” was interchangeable with “the Pope.”
That said, I confess I really don’t know what to make of this guy. But I am less hopeful than I was at first that he might broom out the troublemakers in the Vatican. It would take a strong and determined Pope to do that. PJP II and Benedict XVI were evidently unable to do it, although their intentions were good.
Pope Francis is NOT in favor of Liberation Theology, no matter how much the media tries to make it seem that he is.
God help us. Fellow FReeper Catholic who are political conservatives else you wouldn't be on FR, please wake up and smell the coffee. You should cease and desist from calling yourselves conservative FReepers if you can't make a stand against this Marxist Pope. This needs to be put in caps:
THE ONCE-CRITICIZED MOVEMENT (Marxist Liberation Theology) CONTINUES ITS REHABILITATION UNDER POPE FRANCIS
Bizarre! “Marxist” to these hateful ignoramuses is the synonym of “bad”! Did I say bizarre?
