Score one for us Protestants. Just kidding.
But seriously, Phil (and all the other R.C.'s on this forum), do you believe that in the long run, Vatican II was a mistake? I've run into an increasing number of Catholics in New York who believe that the Latin Mass should be restored to church services.
Church is out of touch and losing members as is.
America is not the world. The Roman Catholic church is a global church and its numbers are increasing quite rapidly. Even in America the Church is growing. There may be a downturn in the attendance of middle class and wealthy white people who have left the Church, but this has been made up by new members from places like the Phillipines and Latin America.
