Pope meets with Hans Kung

I read in in the comments of a blog that in Europe, it is disrespectful to refer to clerical professors as "Father". They are always referred to as "Dr." or "Professor"...

I think there might be a hidden undertone of forgiveness - this proves that Benedict is a forgiving man.  Hans Küng made some AWFUL remarks about Ratzinger shortly after his election (to the tune that Ratzinger manipulated the conclave to his favor and that he would be an awful Pope).

I <3 Benedict XVI!

I can recall Kung publically bashing JP2 as well. I don't like the man's style to say the least.

Kung thought Pope John Paul II was too "rigid" and "uncompromising" -- basically, a giant block in the way of the left-wing's mission to "revolutionize" the Church.

I guess one can understand his dismay when Cardinal Ratzinger was elected Pope! :
