Has Kung spoke out yet about his former colleage Pope Benedict XVI (Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger)?
Yes, he has. He said in a German TV interview. He called the appointment of Ratzinger a "great disappointment". He goes on to say that "many others would have been better choices". Here he cited Martini and Lehman. But Küng also expressed some hope Ratzinger could return to his more conciliatory roots: "The (papal) office changes everyone". On a personal level Küng described Ratzinger as "distanced, cool and, if necessary, Machiavellian". (entire interview: rtsp://video.daserste.azzoo.net/realcontent/moma/050420_3_28.rm)

- Has Kühn ever expressed his opinion of Nietzsche's idea of a pope: "I envisage a spectacle so ingenious and so wonderfully paradoxical at the same time, that all the deities on Olympus would have had occasion for immortal laughter — Cesare Borgia as pope."?

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Hans Küng.jpg
Image:Hans Küng.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 00:04, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Original research on automatic excommunication
I am reverting, yet again, the original research that Kung may have suffered automatic excommunication, because it is unsubstantiated and uncited. There is no citation provided from any official Church source that Kung teaches heresy, and there is no citation from any canon lawyer that Kung's teachings "may" (weasel word) lead to automatic excommunication. -- Cat Whisperer 10:37, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
From Wikipedia's policy against original research, "Synthesis of published material serving to advance a position":
Editors often make the mistake of thinking that if A is published by a reliable source, and B is published by a reliable source, then A and B can be joined together in an article to advance position C. However, this would be an example of a new synthesis of published material serving to advance a position, and as such it would constitute original research. "A and B, therefore C" is acceptable only if a reliable source has published this argument in relation to the topic of the article.
In the material at question, A = canon law, B = the facts of Kung's case, and C = Kung may be subject to the canon law censure of automatic excommunication. -- Cat Whisperer 11:23, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
