I found this amusing, if a bit like shooting barrelled fish. Written in Spanish (thru the lens of Babelfish), via the reader.
...a clear sign of traditionalistic mentality is its rigidity, its resistance to change to itself, its refusal to rectify. Küng is a good example of it. He never thinks that the Church has recognized sufficient faults of the Christians of the past, but never recognizes himself as having been mistaken in something; he requests dialogue, but he thinks outside as if infallible; he denounces the 'inquisitorial climate' in the Church, but adopts a condemnatory tone of the discrepant one. Thank heavens it was the theologian Ratzinger and not Küng who arrived at the Congregation for Doctrine of the Faith. Otherwise, authoritarianism would be something more than a temptation.
