I will not condemn liberation theology, even if its efficacy may not be the greatest, and even if there are only about 5 of them left. I will point out that whenever there was a conflict involving any kind of progressive social movement within catholicism, the church always sided with the people trying to stamp them out. The catholic church would rather side with genocidal protestants than socialist catholics and it has shown this repeatedly.

And if we are to look at the legacy of liberation theology and so forth, why not look to the history of black protestant churches in the struggle against white supremacy? Why does one matter but the other does not?

I firmly believe its cultural cringe and this site being majority from protestant dominated cultures, same as with the opposition to stated atheism.
