Vatican II

Unique among Church councils. Called not to stamp out heresy but to help the Church enter the modern world. Largest council in history and most representative in terms of culture and nations. Both non-Catholic and lay observers were invited. Had tremendous press coverage.

Began Oct. 11th, 1962, ended Dec. 8th, 1965. Council was responsible for 16 documents, seven of which emerged as most important. These seven documents deal in one way or another with the inner nature of the Church and its workings or with the Church and its relationship to the world.

Some changes within the Church

Liturgy: Pre-Vatican II Emphasis on sacredness of liturgy as a means of salvation. Care in keeping liturgy uniform. Latin used throughout the world. Priests perform, laity observe.

Liturgy: Pre-Vatican II Post-Vatican II Emphasis on sacredness of liturgy as a means of salvation. Care in keeping liturgy uniform. Latin used throughout the world. Priests perform, laity observe. Many liturgical changes: liturgy as celebration. vernacular languages all participate, allowing for diverse ministries: lay lectors, ministers of the Eucharist, etc.

Ecumenism: Pre-Vatican II Church is the true Church of Jesus- no toleration of error. Catholics were barred from reading works written by Protestant Reformers.

Ecumenism: Pre-Vatican II Post-Vatican II Church is the true Church of Jesus- no toleration of error. Catholics were barred from reading works written by Protestant Reformers. Ecumenical spirit encouraged: freedom of inquiry joint study groups joint prayer services common edition of the Bible respect for dignity of others intercommunion in some cases if allowed by the bishop.

Modern World: Pre-Vatican II Only scholasticism allowed. New learning looked on with suspicion.

Modern World: Pre-Vatican II Post-Vatican II Only scholasticism allowed. New learning looked on with suspicion. More tolerance: for different kinds of learning for dialogue with the modern world for new forms of spirituality.
