opinion?

I'm interesting in hearing what Nicaraguans think of Cardenal.

Cardenal, “It was a beautiful revolution” "Bananas" says Graham

"... the liberation theology movement, which centered on wresting the poor from unjust social conditions."

Graham says,"That's the usual boilerplate for "a theology replacing God with the Soviet Union."

Read his response to Cardenal's visit & lecture here:

interesting....

i read an article that states the left is enamored with islam because the soviet union had in mind to not immediately have them drop their religion, but wean them off of it..... interesting bc there was no evidence muslims were ever going to give up their religion....
