Thomas Reese resigns from America magazine (CDF involved?) Editor of Jesuits' America magazine forced to resign under Vatican Pressure Father Thomas Reese leaves America magazine quote:
"Father Christiansen is an ideal candidate to take over the reins at America magazine," Father Reese said in a statement. "He has wide experience, editorial expertise and a deep spiritual witness that will serve our publication well." Father Christiansen said, "Father Reese greatly improved the magazine, adding news coverage, color and the Web edition. His technical expertise, in this age of new media, will be greatly missed." In his statement he added, "By inviting articles that covered different sides of disputed issues, Father Reese helped make America a forum for intelligent discussion of questions facing the church and the country today."

PhilWell, well . . . I hope they don't lose the discussion forum format; they had some interesting exchanges during the past few years.

spoonboyWelcome Felicity!
I did not even know that there was an America magazine, so I'm learning all the time. Thank you.
The only living Jesuit I have read is William Johnston, whom I enjoy very much, and find intellectually liberated and liberating, if not liberal.
caritas, mm <*))))><
