Criticism of Pope Francis rooted in misunderstanding of Vatican II: Distinctly Catholic: Part one of a three-part series discussing the theologies of the papacies of Pope Paul VI and Pope Francis, who is facing unprecedented opposition.
MGB: The uncomfortable truth is that St. John Paul was a dissident at the Council and spent his papacy limiting its effects, with Benedict continuing this work. One look at the ad Orientum movement shows the truth of this. Francis and the bishops he appoints were formed during the Spirit of Vatican II era. It is beginning to show and it is about time. Of course, God's timing is exact - something that the neo-cons need to consider when denigrating Paul and resisting Francis.
