Mudy,
I will have to disagree with you here. Those are simply the white man's arguments against blacks (which blame the victim). Liberation theology is intended to control and domesticate the native/black rage from within the christian framework, <i>but it does not negate the valid sources of rage. </i> By contrast, in Asia, liberation theology is exported as a weapon to neocolonize and transform noncombative jati structures into the racist structures of the west.
