A really insightful NCR article on the battle for hearts and minds within the Catholic Church during and after the 2nd Vatican Council.
Thomas Reese (National Catholic Reporter Jan 2016)
“Whether by design or by accident, the John Paul papacy broke the alliance between bishops and theologians which had proved so successful against the Roman Curia at Vatican II.”
“The church ran into trouble after the council because the reform agenda was abandoned not because of the reforms that were implemented.”
