I thought the former Joseph Ratzinger never looked too favorably on those pesky Latin American liberation theologians.

I am aware that Romero is not considered to be a liberation theologian, but his actions at the end of his life paralleled the basic teaching of that movement.

If you want a very detailed review of that thought, visit the San Romero group and read the messages or post a question and get responses.
