Fr. Kevin Burke, S.J. of the Jesuit School of Theology at Berkeley offered this image as a member of a panel on Jon Sobrino’s work at the meeting of the Catholic Theological Society of America.
“Theology is like a wild animal, like a wolf or an eagle or a great white shark. It’s dangerous, and given the propensity of human beings to domesticate and dominate what frightens them, it’s also endangered.”
Not a bad insight.
