Kurtz Doesn't Take the Bait | National Catholic Reporter

Kurtz Doesn't Take the Bait | National Catholic Reporter by MSW. MGB: Archbishop Kurtz, who my wife knew when she was at Catholic Charities as the Episcopal Advisor (before the late Bishop Sullivan) handled this interview well, letting humility defuse the ideological questions.  I suspect, however, that the comment used for the headline,  that there cannot be mercy without truth nor truth without mercy was likely misunderstood by the interviewer.  The Synod is not out to change the truth, but to sniff out what is true.  The other NCR and the dissident conservative bishops don't realize that there may be a difference between their understanding of the truth and the truth itself (which does evolve with the times).
