CyberGroup Discussion - Spiritual Innovators

	Professor Dr. Hans Küng, perhaps the world's best known living theologian, has translated controversy into an extraordinary biography of world engagement and positive contribution to human affairs. Küng has moved well beyond the narrow albeit fascinating world of theology to apply his well trained analytical talents to reflect on vital arenas of human productivity including politics, economics, and international relations.

	Global Ethic Foundation in Tuebingen. Inter-cultural and inter-religious research, education and encounter.
	The Declaration Toward a Global Ethic mentioned in the book and a key work of Kung.
	Only when we eliminate the religious endorsement and acceptance of war can we progress to peace in the world. Here is a perspective on this concluding with Kung's Global Ethic: no world survival without a world ethic, no world peace without religious peace, no religious peace without religious dialogue.

More Quotations

"... we know that our various religious and ethical traditions often offer very different bases for what is helpful and what is unhelpful for men and women, what is right and what is wrong, what is good and what is evil. We do not wish to gloss over or ignore the serious differences among the individual religions. However, they should not hinder us from proclaiming publicly those things which we already hold in common and which we jointly affirm, each on the basis of our own religious or ethical grounds." from the Declaration

"Non-Christians too are in favor of love, justice, a meaning to life, being good and doing good, humanity. And in practice they often go further than Christians in this respect. But if others say the same thing, what is the point of being a Christian? Today Christianity is involved everywhere in a double confrontation: with the great world religiouns on the one hand and with the non Christian "secular" humanisms on the other." ... Why I am still a Christian. For an excerpt of 49 pages visit Amazon.Com
