Favorite living Christian thinkers

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

Hans Küng died just a week or two ago.

I don't really have any favorite living theologians; I don't think we're living in a very theological age. I read a wonderful book on Mary a while back by an Anglican figure named Sarah Jane Boss but I'm not sure what else she's written.

Of these options, I voted for Hart, Hauerwas, and Tutu.

The only options I see in the poll I have even heard about are Alistair MacIntyre, Tim Keller, Desmond Tutu and Russell Moore.
I guess Desmond Tutu among them?

My actual answer is probably Pope Francis, Robert Barron, James Martin, Nathan and Scott.

Great honer!

John Shelby Spong

Spong, whatever you think of his worldview (I personally lost all patience with it when I realized what a textbook case he is of the "racist against conservatives" genre of liberal Christian attitudes towards the Global South), is more of a promoter and popularizer than a thinker. Most of his key insights are warmed-over James Pike.

Voted for Alasdair MacIntyre, John Lennox, William Lane Craig, and Bishop Barron. Probably should have voted for Alvin Plantinga also but somehow missed him.

I missed that Bishop Barron was on the list. I like him but I'm not crazy about the heavy apologetics focus in current American Catholic thought in general. I'm interested in reading his book of Vatican II commentary and seeing what I make of it.
