They WERE taken out of context. I heard the whole diatribe on Moyers last night. Given the totality of what Wright was saying, they were not Marxist at all.
I will repeat again.
WE DID massacre the indians
WE DID nuke Japan
WE DID own slaves
WE DID bomb aspirin Factories
WE DID bomb the hell out of Iraq
All Wright is saying is we are deluded for thinking God gives us a pass on evil acts and condemns only acts made against us.
Total BS and delusional. Violence begets violence, no matter who starts it or for what reason. His message is, God doesnt like it, no matter WHO does it and dont ball like a spineless baby when you slap someone and they slap you back.
