These were pulled from one of his books....(and his books are freightening to normal society). Three books to check out: Black Theology and Black Power, A Black Theology of Liberation, and God of teh Oppressed. Additionally, Google "James Cone" and not only will you find these comments, but MANY, MANY more racist and hateful comments.

Interesting enough, one of the websites about James Cone magically links to the Obama website when you click on it!!!!! Go figure.

What the hell does Lenin know? He wrote good music along with McCartney but apparently felt it was safe to stroll around New York City at dusk with no protection. So who is the idiot?

Default This is the real and original quote

Black theology cannot accept a view of God which does not represent God as being for oppressed blacks and thus against white oppressors. Living in a world of white oppressors, blacks have no time for a neutral God. The brutalities are too great and the pain too severe, and this means we must know where God is and what God is doing in the revolution. There is no use for a God who loves white oppressors the same as oppressed blacks. 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. Unless God is participating in this holy activity, we must reject God's love." [A Black Theology of Liberation, p. 70] • "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, if God is not against white racists, then he is a murderer, and we had better kill him. The task of black theology is to kill gods that do not belong to the black community." [A Black Theology of Liberation, p. 27]

You conveniently changed white racist to white people in your original post gpustate.

Here is a link for you. It supports and clarifys Wright's take on Black Liberation Theology and his support of Farrakhan.

http://noquarterusa.net/blog/2008/04/10/jeremiah-wright-was-a-muslim-why-that-matters/
"Wright is a former Muslim and black nationalist who had studied at Howard and Chicago, and Trinity’s guiding principles–what the church calls the “Black Value System”. . . "Wright’s hate sermons are virtually identical as those given by his good friend, Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan.
The Reverend Wright may no longer be a Muslim, but he clearly embraces Hamas, Minister Farrakhan and others because they dovetail with his established world view, as with other syncretic religions.
Reverend Wright’s hate speeches are a glimpse of someone who has blended Nation of Islam and Black Nationalist Liberation Theology into a subversive Christianity, one that would hardly be recognized by most black Christians, and much less so mainstream American Christians, regardless of color. Indeed, one suspects that Jesus himself would have a difficult time recognizing the message delivered by Jeremiah Wright.
Obama’s 20-year mentorship with Wright not only demonstrates an incredible lack of judgment, but also highlights his views on race. Comments about his Grandmother being a typical white person may simply sound immature, unappreciative, and dismissive of the woman who helped raise him, but in the tradition of Malcolm X, Louis Farrakhan, and Jeremiah Wright, calling someone a typical white person is an insult indicating a world view.

Thank you! "rolling eyes and thumbing nose" If, as the article says, Wright was once a muwslim and follower of NOI that explains a lot.
1. It explains his hatred of white people and his filthy racist rants
2. It expalins why Jesus Christ is a second class citizen and rarely mentioned in a "Christian" church
3. It explains his adoration of Minister Farrakhan and TUC of C "honoring" him.
4. It explains Obama's "hope" and "Change" and that's going to scare people when they learn about Obama's ties to Farrakhan and his message of hate, not hope.
