Thanks to Deacon Mike for pointing out this article in USA Today addressing the crisis in the Catholic Church, not the Scandal, but the precipitous decline in the numbers of people who actually take part in the life of the Church, which then leads to empty pews, fewer priests, financial problems, and so on.
I may not agree with everyone in the article, but I think it’s a decent round up of the situation without a lot of ideological bias.
