Fortunately, understanding Vatican II in an academic sense has no bearing on the salvation of our souls, so I have found it beneficial personally not to reflect on it too much. I assent to the Church’s teaching with heart and mind, whether I understand it in all its intricacies or not. Besides, there is enough written before and after Vatican II to present the Church’s teaching accurately without having to personally dissect VII in all its compromising ambiguity or to rely on the repugnant word of the Indifferentist and Modernist Spirit of Vatican II types.
