Editorial Reviews From Publishers Weekly on Greeley perhaps best as a writer, a sociologist known, but in this book, it is full of professional study in step with observations in his church in the years since the landmark Vatican II (196 265) christine gibson basic english. As the title suggests, Greeley suggests that a revolution occurred since the heady days of the Second Vatican Council christine gibson basic english. In fact, he compares the actions that have the possible change, the storming of the Bastille made. Vatican II reforms were modest, Greeley believes, but were "too rigid structures of the 19th century Catholicism to absorb." In short, he says, the new wine bursts the old wineskins. He attributes this to the failure of the Church, its rhetoric and style to contemporary, educated Catholics who no longer blindly obey the instructions of the authorities of the church. adapt, he writes, leaders of the church is now in conflict with lower clergy and laity who have redefined Catholicism on their own terms, under the teachings and traditions of the heart, even if they have the rules in areas such as sexual behavior does not agree. Greeley does not necessarily endorse these reforms, but he has called unofficial applaud the laity for their faith and church leaders to recognize and respect. He particularly harsh words for authoritarian liturgists, their vision of worship in the community imposes hungry for a real connection between faith and daily life. Catholics, who know what happened after Vatican II want is a compelling read. Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
