Pope Benedict XVI Interprets Vatican Council II: Holy Father Unwittingly Completes Zwick Article (Catholic Worker) on “What Happened To the tremendous Renewal Possibilities After Vatican II?”
Editors’ Introduction:
Unwittingly, Pope Benedict XVI has written the final chapter to our article, “What Happened After Vatican II?” which we published in the March-April 2004 edition of the Houston Catholic Worker. At the time of its publication, long-time Catholic Worker and Catholic Deacon Tom Cornell spoke positively about our description and analysis of the profound movements, experiences and scholarship that prepared the way for the Council, but recommended an additional final chapter regarding the outcome.
