Defense of Vatican II

Vatican II did not teach that the "People of God" are the laity who exist as a separate ecclesial "polity" from the hierarchy

The debate over Vatican II is still the defining ecclesial issue of our time

A respectful dialogue about Vatican II

War, genocide, East-West Cold War, environmental destruction, issues of racism, threats of nuclear war, hot proxy wars between superpowers, poverty, political corruption -- these were the chief issues of the 1960's. And yet somehow, according to Adam Lucas, these issues are no longer relevant to today's young Catholics. So what is "relevant"? He does not say. But he hints that maybe it is the Latin Mass. Good grief.
