The Catholics on FR were very much supportive of Arinze.
It has long been my claim that the pendulum of time has swung way over to the left (yes, in the Catholic Church, too, as well as in values and morals and daily life) and is slowing coming back to the Right.
We see it in more Republicans elected. We see it in Catholics possibly having the opportunity to attend a Latin Mass in their area. We see it in more young people want and orthodox Mass. And we see it in Cardinals and Bishops like Arinze who are willing to take the risk and stand tall while speaking the truth.
In my estimation the pendulum is a little bit to the right of center at this time.
Any other thoughts?

My thoughts...
I love your post but I'm having difficulty being that optimistic, to tell you the truth. What I see up close and personal is a sharp left turn, especially on moral issues. More and more people are buying into the relativity mindset.

guess it depends on what your definition of "center" would be?
