Twenty-two new Cardinals!!!! Congratulations to the 22 newly appointed Cardinals who will be elevated to fill the ranks of the college in order to elect the next Pope! Among the notables, are Archbishop Collins of Toronto (solid) and Archbishop Dolan of New York (solid). Can we see a trend here folks? Solid. Vatican II is on deck and the Holy Spirit is ready to implement the Council. The last fifty or so years, the poltergeist known as the 'spirit of VII' has been exorcized and the Holy Father Benedict 16th has been the lead Ghostbuster! (cue song!) So far, John Paul II is now a 'Blessed,' in 2007 we received the Motu Propio freeing the Tridentine Mass, and this past Advent, we received the New Translation of the Roman Missal. God is good. I feel like singing,..(my best Klaus Meine voice echoeing the Scorpions second biggest hit after 'Rock you like a Hurricane,')
Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams
With you and me
Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
In the wind of change
The wind of change
Blows straight into the face of time
Like a stormwind that will ring the freedom bell
For peace of mind
Let your balalaika sing
What my guitar wants to say.......
Don't worry Modernists,..cheer up you still have Cardinal Mahoney!! I mean, he's not 80 yet,...;)

Good post! It's nice to see posts pointing out good things amid all the negativity in the world today. Thanks. :-)
***Vatican II is on deck and the Holy Spirit is ready to implement the Council.***
Amen. :-)
To slightly paraphrase GKC "Vatican II has not been tried and found wanting; it has been found difficult and left untried". (At least in many dioceses)
