text: Dissident?   
  
  "At the Second Vatican Council (1962–65) Wojtyła so distinguished himself that halfway through the council, in December 1963, Pope Paul VI named him archbishop of Kraków." (britannica.com)
  
  "We consider our primary duty to be that of promoting, with prudent but encouraging action, the most exact fulfilment of the norms and directives of the Council. Above all we must favour the development of conciliar attitudes. First one must be in harmony with the Council. One must put into effect what was stated in its documents; and what was ‘implicit’ should be made explicit in the light of the experiments that followed and in the light of new and emerging circumstances" (17 October 1978)
  
  No, not a dissident.  One could perhaps make the argument that the "spirit of Vatican II" crowd  are actually the dissidents -
