Hans Kung

[Pro_Auris_Dei]

I am a convert to Catholicism from a very anti-Catholic family. My mother is studying for a counseling degree at Pentecostal Theological Seminary. This semester she is taking an elective course in Historical Theology where one of the course objectives is to “…enter into appreciative dialogue with adherents and practitioners of other Christian traditions”, which is code-speak for “get Catholics to leave the Church”. The course is supposed to cover the apostolic age to the reformation.

On the required reading list, there is not a single Catholic book. The only “Catholic” book on the recommended reading list is none other than The Catholic Church: A Short History by the oh-so-orthodox (sarcasm intended) Hans Kung. I have apologetics references all over the place, but I am not familiar with any resources that will help me correct the impressions a person will get from reading such unfair revisionist history texts. Any ideas?

When Pentecostal minister Alex Jones came into the Church this past Easter he was not alone. He brought much of his congregation in with him.

Oh, I have read his book and I’ve got it all ready to go for her! But I am looking more specifically for something that directly addresses Kung’s assertions.

Thanks for the links! I saw Deacon Jones’ latest appearance on The Journey Home a few weeks ago, but I have never seen his earlier appearances.
