I don't know where you're located, but in Boston, we had 40 parishes closed under Cardinal Law (in Boston 1984-2002), more than 60 closed under O'Malley (installed 2003), and now there's talk of closing another 40 or so. Boston -- as of 2005 -- had 303 parishes, so we've alreadylost about a quarter. They can't all be in bad neighborhoods!

True enough, they can't all be in bad neighborhoods.

As I JUST said to you in the previous post, I'm from San Francisco. I guess you didn't really read my post. :o)
