It’s not liberation theology that polarizes people. liberation theology is a response to a polarized world in which a few have a lot and a lot have very little. jesus had a similar response to his own polarized world, saying blessed are the poor. and if it so happens that the poor are black then jesus is with them, don’t you think? jesus was also on the side of peacemakers, which put him in opposition to warmongers. he blessed the hungry and said its nearly impossible for a rich man to enter god’s kingdom. polarizing words? yes, they got him crucified, as would have been obama if he had defended his pastor.
