Pope Benedict XVI warned us about proponents of liberation theology who change entirely the true meaning of Christianity twisted, in turn, into a sort of humanism, and who reinterpret Christianity with a political language that is completely worldly because those who are not spiritually-minded cannot lift their eyes toward heavenly things, but focus rather on the earthly. The principal focus of the nativity scene is Christ, not even the shepherds nor the wise men. Just so, Christ did not come for a certain social class but rather to redeem all mankind from sin because the worst poverty is that of one who does not have God and the poorest of the poor are those to whom the right to life is denied.

" The concept of liberation theology and its origins and preconditions
These preliminary remarks have brought us right to the heart of the subject, without, however, dealing with the central question: what is liberation theology?
Initially we said that liberation theology intends to supply a new total interpretation of the Christian reality; it explains Christianity as a praxis of liberation and sees itself as the guide to this praxis. However, since in its view all reality is political, liberation is also a political concept and the guide to liberation must he a guide to political action:
"Nothing lies outside ... political commitment. Everything has a political color." A theology that is not "practical"; i.e., not essentially political, is regarded as "idealistic" and thus as lacking in reality, or else it is condemned as a vehicle for the oppressors' maintenance of power."Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger
"This inversion of symbols is likewise verified in the area of the 'sacraments'. The Eucharist is no longer to be understood as the real sacramental presence of the reconciling sacrifice, and as the gift of the Body and Blood of Christ. It becomes a celebration of the people in their struggle. As a consequence, the unity of the Church is radically denied. Unity, reconciliation, and communion in love are no longer seen as a gift we receive from Christ. [27] It is the historical class of the poor who by means of their struggle will build unity. For them, the struggle of the classes is the way to unity. The Eucharist thus becomes the Eucharist of the class. At the same time, they deny the triumphant force of the love of God which has been given to us" www.vatican.va/…/rc_con_cfaith_d…

Is it too late to add the 'beggar' to the Infancy Narrative of St. Luke's gospel? What will these geniuses think of next? Why weren't there any homosexuals included?
Mr. Beggar must have been an early casualty of capitalism and trickle-down economics? Regardless, watch him carefully and keep an eye on the gold.
