Non-sense

Catholic writer Paul Likoudis in an article discusses the many faces of Liberation Theology. The piece is uncomfortable to read, but necessary. I have pulled out a short excerpt. In the full article watch for the references to the small church movement and its links to Liberation Theology.


In his heavily annotated book, former Jesuit Robert Goss, who holds advanced degrees in Scripture studies from the Jesuit Weston School of Theology and Harvard University, shows how such contemporary Catholic scholars as Hans Kung, Raymond Brown, Andre Guindon, John Dominic Crossan, John Meier, James Drane, Paul Hollenbach, Xavier John Seubert, Mary Hunt, Rosemary Radford Ruether, Leonardo Boff, Jon Sobrino, and dozens of others-many of whom remain "in good standing" with the American hierarchy-are dismantling orthodox theology while reconstructing a new "qu.er theology" that affirms the s.xual experiences of homosexuals, l.sbians, and bis.xuals. Though all of these scholars write from different perspectives and have different agendas,

Dr. Goss shows how each in his own way is demolishing Catholic teaching on Jesus and His Church in order to rework Catholic moral teaching into an "inclusive," "non-patriarchal, " " non-sexist, " "liberating" form of Christianity

which can celebrate g.y and l.sbian s.xuality-indeed, which affirms it as superior to heteros.xuality which is said to have been culturally imposed.
