Father Kung, the Indian theologian says, was one of the representatives of the progressive wing in the Church in the area of theology. “He has contributed much to Post-Vatican II theology.” “He has done his good work and has gone to the Lord. He can continue to support those who are busy with reforming the Church. Pope Francis gives us hope. We can only thank God for the gift of Hans Kung to the Church in the Post Vatican period for challenging all of us by his reflections,” added Father Amaladoss, who now resides at the Institute of Dialogue with Cultures and Religions, attached to Chennai’s Loyola College.
