Hans Kung banned from speaking in a Barcelona Church

The Archbishop of Barcelona has prohibited Hans Kung from giving a lecture in any church in his archdiocese. Now Kung wants to "debate" the Archbishop....Yes, he is challenging him to a duel! A theological debating duel!

Kung was in Spain to promote his autobiography in which he refers to the Holy Father as “an authoritarian and senile Polish Pope”. Kung also said of the ban, “There has been enough dictatorship and prohibition from speaking in public..."

It sounds to me like he may be upset that he is not Pope and abhors anyone who ideas of the Second Vatican Council differs from his. Read the story here.
