"There's this militant secularism, a denial of spirituality, of the destiny of the human person, and it's a great concern," he said.

And that's just within the Church.

Thank VatII for all these good things.

Please cite where in the Vatican II documents "militant secularism" was taught by the Church.

I don't see it that way. The Enlightenment, communism, protestentism, and the nazis preceded V2. The roots of "militant secularism" have grown deep and there is nothing Rome could have done, short of being the first to devolop the atom bomb. To blame V2 is grossly inaccurate and ignores centuries of history. Why Catholics seek to blame the Church for human failings is a deep mystery.
