I realize that to many good souls, the Paul VI era represents only liturgical vandalism and disciplinary collapse. However, for me, Paul VI means, more than anything else, the incredible, heart-throbbng, completely against-the-odds and grace-drenched miracle of Humanae Vitae.

This was a turning point in civilization. Yes, I'll double down on that: if the human race still exists 500 years from now --- if Christ tarries in His coming --- they will realize that Pope Paul VI's fidelity to the Holy Spirit of Truth saved their very existence.

grace-drenched miracle of Humanae Vitae.

Really, what difference did it make, when you look at young Catholics and their secularized and unCatholic attitudes toward contraception and even abortion?

...heart-throbbing and grace-drenched...? are you a drama critic by chance...?

...guess that’s what the phrase ‘diff’rent strokes’ mean...because when I think of Paul VI I think of the impoverished and flaccid Mass that bears his name...
