It has turn into modern in traditionalist circles in charge all
issues in fashionable theology on the so-called nouvelle
théologie, together with a spread of thinkers resembling
Henri de Lubac, Karl Rahner, Hans Urs von Balthasar, Hans Küng and
Josef Ratzinger. However that is based mostly on a variety of misconceptions:
in regards to the nature of the nouvelle théologie
itself, and in regards to the views held by a few of these theologians.
Nouvelle théologie isn’t a unified motion
through which everybody held the identical views. A few of the “new
theologians” had been radicals and modernists who wished the Church to
bow to the fashionable world. Some had been orthodox males who wished to
revitalize theology by a return to the sources: the Fathers,
Scripture, and St. Thomas (in his personal phrases, not as filtered
by the commentators). Others had been tougher to pin down.
A broad-brush strategy to the nouvelle
théologie has resulted in injustices, maybe as a lot
to theology itself as to some good Churchmen whose reputations have
been tarnished. Even Ratzinger has been dubbed a modernist by a
sure trigger-happy trad superstar. It’s time for an
intervention, and theologian Richard DeClue is right here to carry some
sobriety.
