However, Fr Küng fell out with the Vatican and his former colleague in 1979 when he was stripped of the right to teach theology by Rome after criticising the doctrine of papal infallibility.

A little more to it than that. He declined to give his views on the Gospel of John to a panel of bishops. He was judged "unsound" on Catholic doctrine.

Hangs Kung is so passe! Tres 20th century. Progressives, you’ve lost the battle, OK? You’re regressing not progressing. It’s over, 1968 was almost two generations ago, your aging movement is failing, even Cardinal Mahony has been charmed by Benedict! So give up and get over it already. Embrace the True Church or get out, you’re not going to mold Her to your weird version of truth.

This is a Catholic caucus on the Religion Forum.

If you are not Catholic, leave the thread.

My apologies. I didn’t notice that designation. Was it there at the start of the thread?

I don’t think it was at the time I posted; or maybe I just missed it.

The title hasn't been modified since the thread was posted so you must have missed it.

Your apology is appreciated.

Yes, Kueng’s differences with the Church are deeper than the “old” Catholics’.

“Rome had failed to follow the path of liberalisation set out by the Vatican II council in 1965.”

The “liberalisation” he speaks of is nothing more or less than theological leftism. All leftism is of and from Satan.

Sorry, I guess I am dense tonight. I still don’t see what your reply has to do with my post. The text you put in italics was not from my post.

Kung is a theologian, but he lost his credentials to teach catholic theology twenty years ago...

Alas, the UK reorter doesn’t know the difference.

Sorry, I hit the wrong spot. I gather, however, that I didn't say anything you disagree with.

I have a hard time considering Hans Kung As Catholic.
He used to be, and he used to be a darned good theologian, but since the wagon went round the bend, and lost a wheel, not so much anymore.

I consider Hans Kung to be passe and a reminder of a dying liberal Catholism.
