Spiegel Interview with Hans Kung on the Catholic Church

Over at Spiegel on-line is an interesting interview in two parts (part 1, part 2) with Hans Kung on the current and future state of the Catholic Church. On the need for the reformation of the church, Kung states: “After 500 years, we are surprised that the popes and bishops of the day did not realize that a reform was necessary. Luther didn’t want to divide the Church, but the pope and the bishops were blind. It seems that a similar situation applies today”.
