Whats disappearing is the type of reform envisaged by Küng and the boomer dissenters that followed him. Among the many gifts bequeathed by that now-obsolete generation was an infantilization of the liturgy, Scripture studies corrupted by a hermeneutic of suspicion, Stalinist church architecture, unending bureaucratization, and lots of mere political activism that had more to do with subservience to whatever happened to be the zeitgeist than with proclaiming the Gospel. Across the world, however, all this is crumbling to the ground andas I suspect Küng knowsthe collapse is accelerating.
Good news ping for the day!

Whats disappearing is the type of reform envisaged by Küng and the boomer dissenters that followed him. The best image of dying reform is to watch, and unfortunately also listen to, five gray-headed hippies cranking out something they call music, each strumming a guitar and wailing as if their ideas for reform were still relevant.
