What was the purpose of the Second Vatican Council?

The Second Vatican Council (otherwise known as Vatican II) was a pastoral council, convened in order to update and review the disciplines, policies and attitude of the Catholic Church vis-a-via the modern world. Many documents were drafted and voted on in this Council that had a very progressive flavor that ultimately caused a rift among the Council fathers as Conservatives fought to organize and resist the changes. What came out of this was a series of vague documents that both sides could effectively interpret. After Vatican II, the liberal forces having triumphed, the progressive view was adopted which led to the liturgical reforms that brought forth the modern Novus Ordo Missa or New Mass as well as the attitudes towards liturgy in general in its conduct, literature, prayers, architecture and ecumenism. The Council made no dogmatic definitions nor did it declare itself a full ecumenical council versus just a pastoral one. Traditionalists that continue to resist the effects of Vatican II point to this as their justification for rejecting outright or resisting the modern changes. An excellent and remarkably objective book on the Council is "The Rhine Flows into the Tiber" by Ralph M. Wiltgen, who was a journalist covering it at the time.


Did a list of books considered dangerous to the Church is a result of the Catholic Counter-reformation?

No, the censorship of books goes back to pre-Christian times, and the first record we have of books being condemned and burned was in the Acts of the Apostles. The first document we have condemning books was at the First Council of Nicaea in 325 A.D. The Index, as we knew it up until the Second Vatican Council only came into existence in the early 16th century due to the advent of the printing press. See the articles below about both.

What significant events happened at the Second Vatican Council?

.Catholic AnswerBlessed Pope John XXIII, of happy memory, called the Second Vatican Council to "update" the Church: NOT to change anything, such as dogma or doctrines, but to find new and more contemporary ways of presenting Our Blessed Lord's message of salvation to modern man. The Council, in its sixteen documents (see below) attempted to update the language and presentation of the faith in numerous areas. It called for greater participation of the laity in the life of the Church pointing out that every single baptized member of the Church is called to holiness, not just an elite group of clergy, nuns, sisters, and brothers. As such, the Council called for holiness of all its members. The most regrettable failure of the Council (so far) has been that its message was hijacked by those who were preaching the "Spirit of Vatican II" (as opposed to the letter). Their agenda has been shown to be an abysmal failure as witnessed by the wholesale departure of priests, brothers, nuns, and sisters from the religious life, the wholesale departure of the faithful from the Church, and the nearly complete neglect of the sacraments and ridicule of Church doctrines by those who claim to be "Catholic".
