"THE MOST BRILLIANT THEOLOGIAN I HAVE EVER MET."
--Fr. RAYMOND BROWN, S.S., on PIEPKORN
John H. Elliot related the following in a December 2008 email to the ACP Center Director:
"Piepkorn was admired by all, as you know. Fr. Ray Brown, my old friend and an ardent admirer
of Piepkorn, knew him as a fellow member of the RC-Lutheran Dialogues. Ray considered him
--these are his words--
"the most brilliant theologian he had ever met."
And Ray had met most of the biggies in his life. Quite a tribute to Arthur Carl.”
