His most sobering comment concerned the status of the Church in twenty years. He foresees the Catholic Church being forced underground as in China (with less physical persecution). Sobering, indeed!

"His most sobering comment concerned the status of the Church in twenty years.

Whenever I meditate upon the Church in America, I always see it as becoming an "underground church." I don't know how it will come about, or any other details, but I always see it as being forced to celebrate "in the catacombs."
