The Gospel in Solentiname
The Gospel in Solentiname (Spanish: El Evangelio en Solentiname) is a collection of commentary on the
Solentiname, an archipelago in Nicaragua.[4]
Cardenal held these discussions during the peak of the
Somoza dictatorship. These discussions became a way to address issues such as class conflict and government suppression through gospel-centred discussions, analysis, and action.[5][page needed] The Gospel in Solentiname contained radical readings of the gospels, stating that the God of the Bible is a God that sides with the poor, because God is love, and love can only exist with accordance with equality and justice.[6][additional citation(s) needed
