Including Paul the Sad

The Seven in Heaven: Meet the new saints to be canonized this weekend


PAUL VI AND THE CANONIZATION OF VATICAN II by Jake Neu

No in-depth look at the Pauline reform of the Roman Missal and its consequences.

"By canonizing John XXIII, John Paul II, and Paul VI, Pope Francis is embracing Vatican II and the changes it wrought in religious practice, devotion, the liturgy, administration, external relationships, and general outlook."

He already embraced Vatican II, or rather, a particular interpretation of it, and this is what is being pushed in the canonizations.

Edit. Guest Note: "Paul VI: the 'Pastoral' Canonization of the Spirit of Vatican II" -- by Fr. Pio Pace

One doesn't have to agree with the Latin traditionalists on liturgy and liturgical practice before he can agree with them on the Latin "progressives" and their attempt to claim Vatican II as their own. (Although there would be disagreement as to whether the progressive interpretation is the clear meaning of all of the texts, and intended unanimously by those drafting the documents.)
