Before Barack Obama started running for President I had never heard of Black Liberation Theology. It is hard to believe that a man believing in Black Liberation Theology could get elected President, but it is not hard to believe that Democrats would nominate such a man.
In fact, the liberal churches have bestowed great influence and prestige on the inventor of Black Liberation Theology, a Dr. James Hal Cone. Writes Dr. Cone, among other things,

* "Black theology refuses to accept a God who is not identified totally with the goals of the black community. If God is not for us and against white people, then he is a murderer, and we had better kill him."


* "All white men are responsible for white oppression."


* "While it is true that blacks do hate whites, black hatred is not racism."


* "Theologically, Malcolm X was not far wrong when he called the white man "the devil.""


* "The black theologian must reject any conception of God which stifles black self-determination by picturing God as a God of all peoples."


* "We have had too much of white love, the love that tells blacks to turn the other cheek and go the second mile. What we need is the divine love as expressed in black power, which is the power of blacks to destroy their oppressors, here and now, by any means at their disposal."
