A non-believer talks to the Church


Leadership Conference of Women Religious (LCWR), Base communities in Latin America, Liberation Theology as tought by Gustavo Gutierrez, Leonardo Boff, and Medellin (CELAM), Catholics for Choice, and the struggle for Gays and Lesbians for fully recognition represent the best of Catholic teachings. The orthodox position is the same ideology that supported an ancient order of repression. Support of Franco in Spain for example.

“We are each of us angels with only one wing, and we can only fly by embracing one another.” Lucretius

“My only wish is…to transform friends of God into friends of man, believers into thinkers, devotees of prayer into devotees of work, candidates for the hereafter into students of the world, Christians who, by their own procession and admission, are "half animal, half angel" into persons, into whole persons.” Ludwig Feuerbach

“Religion is the dream of the human mind. But even in dreams we do not find ourselves in emptiness or in heaven, but on earth, in the realm of reality; we only see real things in the entrancing splendor of imagination and caprice, instead of in the simple daylight of reality and necessity.” Ludwig Feuerbach
