Black Liberation Theology.......The Philosophy
From what I've been able to deduce from my reading of Black Liberation Theology this is the philosophy that guides them . Black Liberation Theology seems more concerned with political and economic security , than spiritual salvation . God is seen as a champion for the poor against the rich . However Black Liberation Theology seems to deal more with racism and historical identity . To me personally the very fact that a so called church would be more interested in financial and political gain disqualifies them in my eyes as a place of worship . Also i could be wrong but i don't think you'll find anything in the Bible about God being concerned over who has what and how much . As far as racism goes as I've stated in my last post , the only racism that exist in America today is in the mind of the average black man and woman . As far as an historic identity is concerned they have one ..... they are Americans not slaves . Although slavery was a part of their past it doesn't define them . Black people are the ones who've chosen that part of their history to define themselves . Many blacks have made contributions in medicine , physics , and agriculture , accomplishments that are truly worth building upon .
