It doesn’t help when their bishops are running conservative Catholics like me out of the pew with their Dream Act nonsense. I didn’t leave my church, my church left me.
Pray for Pope Benedict, for he is selecting Bishops with a spine.
I know that back in the 1960 era many liberal Bishops were named, but they are retiring now, so have hope. And come back!
Numbers have been dwindling in all Christian denominations. Somehow, we don’t get the stories about the loss of Methodists, Lutherans, Episcopalians, Presbyterians etc.
White Americans have been fleeing the Catholic church for years, that is why the immigration of millions of Catholics doesn’t change the percentage of the Catholic population.
