The Catholic commentariat has no shortage of pundits who assert, in the face of all evidence to the contrary, that Vatican 2 hasn’t failed—it’s just never been tried!
We were reminded of that by a George Weigel column last week and by this meme that made the rounds about the same time.

Our adaptation of the above recipe substitutes “Vatican 2” for socialism (the two not being incompatible), and lost souls for skulls. Serve cold.
