I live in a chiefly Hispanic neighborhood, so I kind of know what you're going through. From a passive point of view, granted. But as far as the concept of liberation theology, and how that's just a fallacy in the Church, and in Christianity as a whole, in my personal opinion.
You're right. And it's very much an adjunct with prophecies as well. So it's sadly the case.
I just want to say, yeah, I'm extremely privileged to get to meet you, who has gotten to be on that side, but also found your way to the other side. Praise God for that. And I'm definitely going to keep you in my prayers, for sure.
But I look forward to hearing this again, and I hope to work with you in the future, too. Because it's a great movement that you're starting, and thank you so much for doing that. Thank you so much, Katie.
Yes, let's stay in touch. Katie, she spoke a lot earlier about, like I said, liberation theology and its infiltration in the Catholic Church. She also spoke about Vatican II.
So, yeah, there'll be quite a bit to hear. I'm sure you'll have questions for me that I'll probably pass on to her. But anyway, go ahead, Insky.
Thank you. Thank you for doing the space, Matt, and for Katie for co-hosting. I don't have a particular question, but I was going to refer to something that is actually in Georgia, Matt, in your kind of neck of the woods there.
You know, there's a lot of talk about how government always fouls up social programs. I'm willing to entertain any ideas for social programs, but to me, they have to have these kind of guidelines. They've got to be, how shall I say it? First of all, they have to be affordable.
They have to be sustainable, and they have to be effective. But how many times does the government get involved with stuff, and it's just a money pit? There's no evaluation for effectiveness, and that all gets kind of lost along the way. It's like, no, that's supposed to be a package deal.
If you're going to be responsible with taxpayer money, you have to do it that way. But then I think of the Eastlake community outside of Atlanta there where the community and corporations came together with the community to put together a plan that basically transformed that area. And then that was copied in some other cities across the country, but not enough to me.
Now, why wasn't it? It's probably because politicians are territorial. They want to come up with their ideas, but they can't do it. So why reinvent the wheel when Eastlake has been pretty successful with what they did? I don't know why that isn't a model for a lot of the other urban cities across the country.
