(Fox News) The growing movements of critical social justice and critical race theory are raising concerns with at least one theologian, who says these ideologies are not only incompatible with Biblical Christianity but could be even considered downright evil.
“I wouldn’t fault anyone for first saying that. … I believe it is sinister,” says Dr. Voddie Baucham, dean of Theology at African Christian University in Lusaka, Zambia. Despite work taking him to Africa, the dean maintains strong connections to the U.S., where he grew up, studied and where one of his sons are.
Baucham said, “Social justice is not about the outworking of Biblical justice. … Social justice is rooted in these ideas of equity, not equality. … Equality is about equal opportunities. Equity is about equal outcomes.”
