Another excellent (and fairly brief) reading on Lutheran Ethics is Reinhard Hutter's essay in _The Promise of Lutheran Ethics_. Though he's now Roman Catholic, Hutter is truly a great (and at the point he wrote this article, Lutheran) thinker. <BR/><BR/>Of course, the defection of Hutter (and, increasingly, other Lutheran thinkers, too) would probably cause Mattes and the "Radical Lutherans" some consternation. I am not so sure I agree with his very low estimation of the Pope's encylical...<BR/><BR/>Cheers,<BR/><BR/>NateVicar Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02088095717818333777noreply@blogger.com
