Is the Catholic Church gradually moving to rehabilitate Martin Luther? - Vatican Insider

 Fr. Richard Neuhaus (RIP) used the say when asked why he converted from the Lutheran communion to the RC Church that Vatican II finally saw the Catholic Church correct its ways and answer the issues raised by Martin Luther. As he put it, there was no longer any reason to remain separate, so he came home to Rome.


Is this the same spirit that seems to be now moving the RC Church towards the 'rehabilitation' of Martin Luther?

    The comment was made that Luther was not a "Saint" (in the Catholic sense) however, to have any kind of union or intercommunion. Luther needs to be declared a Father of the Church.

    I would disagree with Father Neuhaus that the Catholic Church corrected its way, there is still a long way for RC to travel to reach that objective.

All good things must come to an end

Well, it's been a hell of a ride, laying rubber all over the road for the past decade. But it's time to call it a day and park the Rogue in the garage. Effective today, I am shutting down my blog to focus my attention on other endeavours. My thanks to the more than 2.7 million people who regularly joined me on these sojourns through news stories over the years that dealt with the places with issues of religion and faith intersecting with public affairs. May God bless you with a continuing desire to learn about and help disseminate the issues of faith throughout the public square. Happy trails in your continuing travels! Fr. Tim Moyle, p.p. Diocese of Pembroke
