text: Sorry, but Vatican II was and is considered an ecumenical council just as much as the other councils.  Your comments about the 2000 year old church are amusing.  While the Jesus Movement began in Jerusalem, other Christian communities formed quickly with other leaders to guide them.  There were general concepts that  agreed many to, but the language utilized in celebrating The Meal differed, and customs differed.  For example: before the 4th Century, Easter was not universally reserved as the time for Baptism.  That only came later.
  
  The Body and Blood of Jesus is CHRIST coming to his people.  When did Jesus ever distain to touch lepers, sit with sinners, refuse anyone who came to him?  Jesus did not need anyone to defend him in his adult years---and he doesn't need anyone to put up barriers to keep his people away now.
  
  I know some bishops who are not properly formed.  They are trying to play the JPII card against Pope Francis---at the expense of the people.
