This podcast unpacks Fr. Álvaro Calderón's powerful critique of the Second Vatican Council, as presented in his book "Prometheus: The Religion of Man". We examine Calderón's thesis that the Council represents an effort to establish a "Religion of Man" in place of the "Religion of Christ," exploring his analysis of humanism, subjectivism, and the redefinition of the Church. This podcast offers a detailed look at a significant traditional Catholic perspective on the Council's hermeneutics.
Fr. Álvaro Calderón's "Prometheus: The Religion of Man" likens the Second Vatican Council to Prometheus's act of bringing fire to humanity, with significant consequences. This podcast takes on "The Prometheus Project," dissecting Calderón's interpretation of the Council as a promotion of "Catholic humanism" and its implications for the Church. We analyze his arguments concerning the purpose of the Council, its understanding of human dignity, and its impact on Catholic doctrine and practice.
