What is Wrong Here? | National Catholic Reporter by MSW.  MGB: The equation of Liberation Theology with violence is why it is unacceptable.  That being said, some advocacy of democratic socialism with a religious voice would not be harmful, as many are scared off by the secularism of many social democrats.  More importantly, in order to get change, some form of socialism must be threatened in order to achieve the liberal reforms many developing societies require to advance into the modern world.  As far as abortion, the Church should never give up its stand - however it should look at the science and realize that life begins at gastrulation - no sooner and no later.  The other thing it must confront is that many in the pro-life movement have no intention of ever winning and use the faithful for self-enrichment.  It is not a good act to associate with such people.
