”Theological Studies för professionella teologer har funnits i 71 år och har 2848 prenumeranter i 90 länder .”
”Det blåser kalla vindar från Rom.”
Artikel författaren påpekar att en enstaka artikel i en professionell teologisk tidskrift som förmodligen vanliga lekmän inte ENS laser kan skada , förvirra eller leda lekmännen fel .
Tvärtom varje gång Vatikanen agerar TROSPOLIS skänker den samtidigt massor med PR åt just åsikter och idéer som den tror är farliga att spridas.
Vidare skriver artikelförfattaren
” Has anyone noticed that Catholic theologians are running for the secular hills?”
“Nearly seven years ago Himes and Coriden raised a theological question with significant pastoral implications. But the Vatican’s brand of thought police (more likely only one Vatican doctrine cop) decided Himes’ and Coriden’s work was non-doctrinal and a danger to the faithful, who probably never heard of either one until this story hit the news.”
“Such is not a new mistake by non-media savvy doctrine enforcers. Think of how many books they have sold for Elizabeth Johnson. If the Vatican is concerned about scholars being popularized, perhaps it should consider how much PR it does on their behalf.”
“Attacking a professional journal does not protect doctrine. It mummifies it. Driving theologians into the secular streets can actually create the problem the doctrine defenders seek to avoid.”
