> Frater: The Holy Spirit normatively works thru the Church and thru the
Sacrament of Orders/Magisterium etc. A Vatican 3 now would be wasted
time and money because it would be like politics here-a mutual blaocking
of the other side.It would be better (if we must which I do not think we
need to do) for there to be authentic regional/bishops councils in which
the principle of subsidiarity (that JP2 despised-Stalinist that he was
and by this I mean centralise, centralise, centralise everything) is
implemented ats Vatican 2 decreed-and then in 2-3- decades call an
authentic Oecumenical Council in which all branches of the Church would
be present. Vatican 2 gave us obeservor status but little real input tho
there were some who tried to enlarge this). Meanwhile let us be about
Our Fathers business and work on a grass roots level to bring the
Kingdom into fuller and wider meaning. Blessings. GDVW+ I agree that we
shouldn't limit the work of the Holy Spirit.
