Some backstabbing that I missed out on...

Apparently, Hans Küng has an opinion on the abuse scandal in Germany, and he is not afraid to share it. There are helpful and constructive comments needed in this debate. This is neither one of these, but just another chapter on the personal vendetta of Küng vs. the Pope. Honesty (one of the key words in Küng's article) demands that people do not just point fingers and throw stones whenever they see an opportunity.
" "Conversion and repentance begin when guilt is openly admitted, when contrition1 is expressed in deeds and manifested as such, when responsibility is taken, and the chance for a new beginning is seized upon." " These are the words of Bishop Tebartz van Elst of Limburg that Küng closes with - what about you, Hans Küng?
