How does anyone know what the "degree" of a council is?

Neil said:  but the Catholic way of demanding the religious assent of faith is dogmatic definition, of which Vat.II contained nothing

EXACTLY!  As you stated, V2 was the first non-dogmatic, pastoral, ecuмenical council in history.  That is evidence right there that it should be viewed "differently", but many don't have an explanation for this difference, and it doesn't fit their theory, so they ignore it.

It seems to me that Vat.II fails 1, 2 and 4, not just 1.
In the interest of making a point about the lack of clarity and obligation to obey V2's "decrees which decree nothing", I conceded 2 and 4.  But I agree that 2 and 4 are debatable and not 100% certain.

It's going to take a new Council to declare Vat.II "different" from the previous 19, and therefore abrogated.
Neil, another great point.  I agree that it's not my place to say that V2 is abrogated or invalid.  However, as the 'council fathers' and many theologians have admitted in the past 50 years that it IS DIFFERENT than other ecuмenical councils, (as I've shown by many quotes) we don't have to wait for a future council to  tell us that our 'religious submission' should have MUCH caution attached to it.  

These are not my words, but those of the V2 magisterium itself!

Only way V2 could not be a "Council of the Church" is if Paul VI had not been a legitimate pope.  Period.  There's no other answer.  Any other explanation is just ridiculous mental gymnastics to serve the R&R agenda ... and a waste of everyone's time.

CathInfo readers can listen to the opinion of a canon lawyer and doctor of Thomistic theology or to the opinion of a professional blogger who wants to be one on CathInfo.

For those who are not familiar with Fr. Hesse, there are many informative videos on you tube. Highly recommended.
