Echoes. Hans Küng and the perils of fame. Published 4/21/2021


During his 1977 rookie year with the Baltimore Orioles, future Hall of Famer Eddie Murray got a piece of advice from veteran Lee May: If you ve got talent, May told the 21-year-old slugger, fame can t help you, but the odds are it ll ruin you. Murray followed May s sage counsel and avoided the limelight. Father Hans Küng, the mediagenic Swiss Catholic writer who died at age 93 on April 6, didn t. Therein lies a sad tale.
Hans Küng certainly had talent. His doctoral dissertation on Karl Barth, arguably the greatest of 20th-century Protestant theologians, became a pioneering book in ecumenical theology. His small tract, The Council: Reform and Reunion, helped frame the discussion at Vatican II s critical first session. Küng could also recognize and promote talent; he personally engineered Joseph Ratzinger s appointment to a professorial chair in the prestigious theology department at the University of Tübingen. ....

Echoes. God's harsh and dreadful love. Published 4/14/2021


The Paschal Triduum this year seemed like a return from exile: Holy Thursday s Evening Mass of the Lord s Supper, in church; Good Friday s Commemoration of the Lord s Passion, in church; Saturday evening s Easter Vigil, in church what a blessing. Thanking God, I could only be aware of those for whom the exile continues, whether because of the pandemic or, like my friend Jimmy Lai, because of unjust imprisonment for the cause of Christ and freedom in Hong Kong. May their exile end soon.
In his 2010 Easter message, Pope Benedict XVI noted that the new Passover Christians celebrate at Easter the passing-over of the Lord Jesus from death to a superabundant form of life replicates in important respects the form of Israel s Passover, which the Church remembers at the Easter Vigil by reading Exodus 14:15-15:1. Yes, Easter changed everything, in that it revealed in a definitive way what God intended for humanity in the beginning (Genesis 1:1) and nothing could be the same ....

Echoes. Light from the East. Published 4/7/2021


Ten years ago, last month, the Synod of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church took a striking decision: it elected its youngest member, 40-year old Bishop Sviatoslav Shevchuk, as leader of the largest of the eastern Catholic Churches, a choice confirmed by Pope Benedict XVI. In the ensuing decade, what appeared bold and even risky now seems brilliant and providential. For Major-Archbishop Shevchuk has become one of the world s most dynamic Catholic leaders under exceptionally challenging circumstances.
From 1946 until 1990, the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church [UGCC] was the world s biggest underground religious community, officially dissolved in 1946 by a bogus synod engineered by the Soviet Union s secret police in connivance with the Russian Orthodox Church. With many of its leaders murdered in the Gulag, the UGCC in Ukraine survived underground for over four decades: worshipping in forests, conducting clandestine educational institutions (including the rudiments of semina ....
