If you have not read it ,or read recently, I suggest Maritain's “Old Man of the Garonne.” which was published in December, 1965, just as the Council was ending. His phrase “genuflection to the world” reflects his disappointment with the results and he lands blows on Teilhard’s back with a thick stick.

I’m going to have to re-read that one...I don’t think I’ve read it since 1965! Well, maybe 1970...

I do remember his enormous disappointment with the Council. And his name was virtually blotted out from all subsequent Catholic texts, university courses, etc. as a result.
