Walls to Bridges: The Global Ethic Paperback – December 19, 2019

Hans Kung was and is a “thinker of possibilities.” He had a vision of peace in the world that many feel is impossible or even unthinkable. His tenacity resembles that of Gracian Balazar, a 16th century Jesuit priest, philosopher, and educator. Gracian, too, stood by his belief in a universal ethic despite powerful religious pushback and ostracizing. Hans’ intellect and vigilance has foreshadowed many of today’s societal problems.Reading Walls to Bridges offers a glimpse into a world melded together through kindness, understanding, and of course, love. Hans’ concept of The Global Ethic does not circumvent religious dogma but calls for dialogue that would create world peace through acceptance of differences and mutual commonality.Certainly a great mind of the 19th and 20th centuries and a forefather of change sought by The Parliament of the World’s Religions.
