May their tribe prosper.

That does not alter the fact that it's mighty slim pickins out there. That's not an opinion. That's a fact.

There is a severe shortage, I'll agree with you there, but there is much hope to be had. There are many places where admittance to seminaries have increased exponentially. This also happens to be in Dioceses where the theology preached by the Bishop is conservative, in-line with Rome and Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament is lauded (i.e. Archdiocese of Atlanta, Archdiocese of Denver...).

The slim pickins is an illusion created by derelict bishops who are failing at recruiting new priests on purpose. See www.goodbyegoodmen.com and make sure you read the "feedback" section.
