Why is he wearing a medal with that exact same symbol on it
Brody Morales
He didn't want to be rude to the gommies, maybe?

Who cares about symbols, isn't it "the meaning you attribute to them that matters?"(sneer)
Juan Gomez
I'm surprised (or should perhaps be unsurprised) the video on this is never posted.

Kek the pope's face when he realises what they are putting in his neck.

I think the Pope means well, but his inviting nature is easily taken advantage of. Or something. There's a reason people get emboldened enough to even present junk like that to him. He somehow made them feel OK, in the first place.

Its misplaced focus on the material and not necessarily the spiritual on many levels. There's honestly a better way of going about it, as many modern liberation theologists often think they're solid on their theological base and lose focus on the whole saving souls part.

I generally agree with Benedict XVI’s objection to Liberation Theology. 1) It effectively omits God, there is no place for Him in Liberation Theology, what is left is Jesus, ‘who of course no appeared now, no longer as the Christ, but rather as the embodiment of all the suffering and oppressed and as their spokesman, who calls us to rise up, to change society.’ (Introduction to Christianity, 2nd Edition, pg. 14-16); 2) Liberation Theology’s foundations are inherently unchristian, they’re founded on the basis of Marx, whose philosophy, theory of existence and practical worldview contradict the teachings of Jesus Christ and thus the Catholic Church by creating its own truth rather than presupposing God’s truth (it twists the Bible, ignores proper theology, and supposes that the Eucharist is symbolic of the ‘revolution’ and its preparation). Consequently, Marx’s atheistic politics and economics become the means of salvation; 3) The spiritual in Liberation Theology is now orientated towards the material rather than the vice versa, and so Marx’s programs (which has not God in mind) are adopted and performed, totally forgetting about God except as a tool (which comes back to #1).
