@Rasterman @ChristiJunior @Lady_Euromutt Vatican II was a controversial ecumenical council held in the early 1960’s that reformed the attitude of the Catholic Church toward world governments and modern culture. It ultimately led to a reformed liturgy which, in cities, is often celebrated irreverently. It also did away with classical chants in favor of more hymns.

That’s not the only change Vatican II made, it also softened the Church’s stance on heretics, especially Eastern Orthodox, but the liturgical revolution is the most openly contested part, including by Pope Benedict XVI is his book “Spirit of the Liturgy.”
