U.S. Jesuit forbidden by Vatican to teach as Catholic theologian: "Serious doctrinal error"

Following a five-year inquiry, the Vatican has forbidden an American Jesuit priest from teaching as a Catholic theologian because of what were called “serious doctrinal errors” in his work.

The investigation by the Vatican’s doctrinal agency centered on a 1999 book by Roger Haight, Jesus: Symbol of God, which interprets traditional doctrines about Christ, the Trinity and salvation, among other topics.
