LOL!! It bugs you that the NCR is more widely read than any other Catholic paper.

No, perhaps you are confusing me with someone else, I say to you again, (as was my original point) that 100,000 is rather irrelevant in the scheme of things. I'm not saying that the Wanderer is more relevant, it is less so, but your rationalizing that this paper in any way is "needed" in the Catholic community of around 1 billion to communicate is a gross overstatement.

What's worse, the continual attempt to mollify those on here speaking out against this clearly small, yet so call Catholic publication is counterproductive in the long run to both Catholicism and conservatism.

I'm not trying to mollify anybody.

They have their opinions, I have mine. I thought that's what this forum is about, expressing opinions.

Hey sinky, whats this 100,000 circulation number?
A lot of modernist optimism, thats what it is!

"According to reports, the [NCR] paper's circulation dropped to about 35,000 [after the Condemnation] before rebounding. Today [4/25/03] it stands at around 50,000 subscribers in more than 90 countries, a level that it has maintained for years."
...As reported in the NCR 4/25/2003 by Tom Roberts in the obituary he wrote about "Robert Hoyt, NCR founder, dies at 81".

As the number of good holy bishops increases, the further the NCR circulation numbers will decrease. When Mahoney goes the decrease will accelerate.
