That would be me! As well as our little nonRoman catholic church body and
others like us, and the Lutherans and Anglicans and all the other western,
catholic Reformation church traditions... and we all have our right wingers too,
but something about being not tied to Rome frees one up.
As far as the shining lights of Roman Catholics: Hans Kung, John Dominic
Crossan, Archbishop Oscar Romero, Dom Helder Camera, and the four martyrs of El
Salvador (Jean Donovan, Dorothy Kazel, Ita Ford, Maura Clark) come to mind...
and of course John XXIII of blessed memory and who can forget the hope we had
for John Paul 1 of such a short reign?
And the greatest catholics of them all: Martin Luther and Phillipp Melanchthon,
and their successors including Bishop Nathan Soderblom, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, and
Albert Schweitzer.
