"Let it be very clear, then, that when the church preaches social justice, equality, and human dignity; when the church defends those who suffer poverty or violence, this is not subversive nor is it Marxism. This is the authentic magisterium of the church.

As an atheist, liberation theology
I consider myself gnostic, but I am a crusader for liberation theology.
Reactionaries are the true (funny D-word)s. Look at 4chan and tell me that any God smiles on them. Deus Vult.
Just out of curiosity, did you mean to say agnostic or was gnostic intentional?
Catholicism doesn't own liberation theology. From Diggers to Narodniks most Christian (indeed most religions') factions have had tendencies. Heck, the Christian Gnostic Essenes are echoed in modern Christian Anarchist communities.
