This thread is probably not the best place to point out the correlation between the introduction of "altar girls" and the reduction of vocational callings among young Catholic men.

There is no correlation. What you are doing is known as Post Hoc ergo propter hoc.

You try to tie an effect to a cause with no proof.

The fact is, the shortage of men attending seminaries started long before altar girls were approved.
