My problem with Rev. Wright

[XemaSab]

Reverend Wright preaches liberation theology to Negroes, and you know that's just going to make 'em uppity.

1. Don't you mean "uppity negroes?"

:eyes:

[XemaSab]

6. They weren't uppity before they started going to TUCC!

But learning about the Gospel message of bringing justice to the poor and oppressed... what good does that do anyone? :shrug:

2. Gawd, yes..............

3. Sorry, I'm an Obama supporter who does have problems

with some of the comments he's made- particularly those about Bill and Hillary Clinton and Natalie Hollowell. And those remarks have jackshit to do with liberation theology.

4. How dare a fellow named Jeremiah deliver a Jeremiad from the pulpit??

:eyes: (I think I'd probably enjoy having a beer with that dude.)

5. The sad fact is that in a world where people truly voted their interests...

70 percent of whites 99 percent of women and 100 percent of minorities would cheer approval of his message....

7. also: why is he so angry? I mean, this is America, after all, land o' plenty.

8. You really think that's what the uproar is about?

Not. even. close.

9. It is about "hating 'Murika"....

:eyes:

[Straight Shooter]

10. It's about painting everyone with a broad brush.

It's about drawing parallel comparisons between the U.S. and al Qaeda. It's about fostering hate and anger. But let me not waste my time and energy on this anymore. I don't run America, because I'm not "rich white folk." What I think doesn't matter.

Maybe Rev. Wright should take a look at the whole world and yell about rich white folk running pretty much the rest of the world, too.
