Robert Blair Kaiser (January 11, 1931 – April 2, 2015) was an American author and journalist, best known for his writing on the Catholic Church. ==Early life== Kaiser trained as a Jesuit from 1949 to 1959. He left the order and his intention to be ordained to the priesthood to become a journalist and to marry.〔http://ncronline.org/blogs/ncr-today/robert-blair-kaiser-passes-84-holy-thursday〕 As a correspondent for ''Time Magazine'', he won the Overseas Press Club's Ed Cunningham Award in 1962 for the "best magazine reporting from abroad" for his reporting on the Second Vatican Council. Four of his thirteen published books deal with Catholic Church reform. His latest books include ''A Church in Search of Itself: Benedict XVI and the Battle for the Future'' and "Cardinal Mahony: A Novel." A new version of his 1970 best seller, ''R.F.K. Must Die!" was published in 2008, with a new sub-title, "Chasing the Mystery of the Robert Kennedy Assassination''. Kaiser's speech in Ireland on August 19, 2010, at the Humbert Summer School, entitled "Catholic Church Reform: No More Thrones," called for Irish Catholics to boldly initiate an ecclesiastical revolution through which they would remove secretive hierarchy, take back their cathedrals, and elect their own bishops. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Robert Blair Kaiser」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
