I will be posting a variety of notes on this document derived from research I did on a recent paper so it will be under construction for a while. Claude Muncey

[23 April 2005]

I have corrected some minor slips and such, made some useful identifications and links such as Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity, which was only identified as "Unity" and introducing useful Main article:... headings to some sections for further support and depth. The introduction needed adjusting to bring it better into line with the history of ideas, but I made no changes that aren't mainstream. --Wetman 22:24, 7 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] NPOV tag

I realise that putting an NPOV heading appears quite aggressive, and I want to make sure that no one feels that this is the case. I feel that there are a number of assumptions in this article that need to be dealt with:

  • While it deals with the liberal view in quite a lot of detail the traditionalist view, especially the traditionalist criticisms during and after the council, is given less room.
  • The Conservative Catholic (as opposed to Trad) view that Dignitatis was not a substantial change in Catholic teaching is not dealt with
  • John Courtney Murray is treated as the central figure giving a perritus centric view

I'm not saying that the bias is deliberate, and for that reason I was rather unwilling to put on the tag, but as I will hopefully be editing this article in some depth it is best that the motives for the edits are telegraphed in advance and that misunderstandings are avoided.
