In A Tale of Two Theologians, Ambrose Mong's observant new work, he
examines the writings of the Peruvian theologian Gustavo Gutierrez
and the Indian theologian Michael Amaladoss, and gives fresh
attention to their main concerns regarding evangelisation and the
poor. Why, he asks, is Gutierrez's liberation theology now accepted
and celebrated by the Roman Catholic Church while Amaladoss's Asian
theology with a liberation thrust is threatened with censorship?
Mong argues that the dwindling threat of Communism has made the
Marxist overtones of Latin American liberation theology more
palatable to the Catholic hierarchy, while the challenge of
religious pluralism in Asia is as complex and emotive as ever. How
can the Church learn to balance the need for dialogue between
religions with their duty to proclaim the Gospel? How can the
Church inculturate itself in Asia while maintaining its identity?
Ambrose Mong tackles these questions with the shrewd, clear-eyed
view of an active priest and scholar, exploring the long, troubled
relationship the Church has with liberation theology and offering
guidance for the future.
