Was Vatican II Really Good for the Church

[Tory]

I personally think Vatican II was bad for the church, and as for priesthood and attendance numbers I think all you need to do is look to the Eastern Orthodox, where change has been virtually nonexistant and yet they have no problems attracting men to the priesthood(or even to the monastic life, something the Catholics might as well give up on) and their attendance in the west has remained fairly steady; in the east obviously since the fall of communism there's been a rebirth of interest in and practice of the Orthodox faith despite no change in church doctrine, practice, or culture.
