Hans Küng

Theologian

Hans Küng was a highly influential Swiss Catholic priest, theologian, and prolific author known for his critical examination of church doctrine. He served as a key theological advisor at the Second Vatican Council but later had his license to teach Catholic theology revoked by the Vatican due to his dissenting views, particularly on papal infallibility. Throughout his career, Küng advocated for ecumenical dialogue between Christian denominations and a broader interfaith dialogue among world religions. His work, including his "Project Global Ethic," sought to identify common ethical principles shared by different faiths to foster peace and cooperation.
