In my days at Fordham I had the privilege of meeting one great Lutheran cleric Richard Neuhaus and having another as professor of Early Christianity, Robert Wilkin. Both men were great intellects, devout in their Faith and tremendously respectful toward mine. Both later converted to Catholicism. It is because of knowing such men that I am disconcerted by the tone of this article. At best it tries to explain the modern relationship between Catholic and Lutheran as if this were still the 16th Century. I thought only Muslims did that.
Well; read FR Catholics.
They are STILL stuck in the 1600's with Luther; fresh, hot and wet; in their minds.
