I hope Dr. Koons makes as good a Roman Catholic as Jaroslav Pelikan made an Orthodox Christian and that he contributes as much to the Roman Church as Dr. Pelikan did to Orthodoxy.

I loved Dr. Pelikan’s articles in “First Things.” He had a lovely vocabulary, so I enjoyed reading him even if I didn’t understand half of it.

Are you familiar with David Hart, another Orthodox writer who is often in “First Things”? He has a wonderful vocabulary, too, and a sense of humor that’s positively O’Rourke.

Loved Pelikan’s History of Dogma series, and it has led to many of his other books. Which means my wife has a lot more to trip over in my library.

As to the subject of this article, don’t know much about him. I think he kept pretty quiet on “church” stuff.
