...last week's meeting a mere "series of talks." Over coffee, a Dominican priest- theologian, Edward Schillebeeckx, 65, clad casually in a tweed sports jacket, sat answering respectful questions from three other theologians. In case of need, a theological counsel for the defense, Schillebeeckx's dean at Nijmegen University in The Netherlands, stood by in an adjacent room...
Among Roman Catholic thinkers, the New Christology first appeared at the University of Nijmegen, The Netherlands, in 1966, when the late Ansfried Hulsbosch, an Augustinian, issued a manifesto against the Council of Chalcedon. The church, he wrote, should "no longer speak of a union of the divine and human nature in one pre-existent person." One of the Dutch movement's two leading figures has been his Nijmegen colleague, Jesuit Piet Schoonenberg. In his 1969 book, published in English as The Christ (Herder & Herder; 1971), Schoonenberg also discarded the "two natures" approach, speaking instead of "God's complete...

Opposition politicians in Turkey accused the Ankara government of hiding the news that 34 children had died of cholera...
Patron Saint. Students pack lectures on Marxist philosophy, political science, sociology and economics-not only at such well-known leftist strongholds as West Berlin's Free University and the "Red" French universities of Nanterre and Vincennes but also at Catholic institutions like Belgium's Louvain or Nijmegen in Holland. Publishers have found a vigorous market for works by and about a variety of Marxists: not only such dogmatic mainstream interpreters as Lenin and Mao, but a host of differing theoreticians, ranging from Leon Trotsky to former Czechoslovak Communist Party Leader Alexander Dubcek, who was toppled...
...authors puts it, "to believe according to his own way of thinking." It lets students decide for themselves, for instance, whether Jesus was God; it offers the Resurrection as an inspiring belief rather than historical fact. The authors-some 50 theologians, most from the Catholic University of Nijmegen-are convinced that this open-minded approach is the best way to reach questioning Dutch teenagers. The bishops of the two dioceses involved have reservations about the course, but apparently prefer it to the adhoc sex-and-sociology classes that preceded it. Nevertheless the Vatican has ordered the new course withdrawn from...
