**One of the sad ironies of the past 40 years is that the Second Vatican Council emphasized the importance of evangelization by the laity, but has often been ignored or simply not explained.**

BTTT!

Well, from the outside, one of the downsides of the alleged "Spirit of Vatican II" was that a lot of Catholics acted as though they had nothing worth evangelizing about.

For me personally Augustine, Aquinas, and Dante and the increasingly obvious silliness of my prior outfit (thus I seek to avoid loss of Caucus status) were all the evangelization I needed.
