Anyone here heard of Maria Lopez Vigil's 3 volume work Just Jesus?

She talks of a human brown-skinned Jesus and the feminine face/nature of God.

Strongly influenced by Liberation Theology.

I posted this question in the religion forum, but the responses were on the order of 'another attempt to try to save an oppressive patriarchal world view.'

I thought maybe some DUers reading/posting here might not be so negative about any approach that views Christianity differently than the shrill, omnipresent Evangelical interpretation/presentation of Christianity.
