When people get tired of the “Church of Our Egos” they will be flocking back to the Catholic Church in droves. The Holy Spirit has quite a job to do to get us all focused on what is important and not just ourselves.

It’s happening with several faiths now, it’s just that the Anglicans/Episcopalians are the most notable (for obvious reasons). I’ve also seen Lutherans and Baptists join the Catholic fold recently.

All converts have a similar desire to get back to the Eucharist. The “communion of saints” is also very appealing.

Some are tired of the gay agenda, some are tired of the egos, some are tired of the “pop culture” aspect, and some are tired of their former church with its politics. Many Christian religions where formed by rebelling against the Mother Church (or by splintering off the original rebellers themselves), and were lead by earthly men who thought they could interpret scripture better than the Vatican. Such men often used greviances (wether true or false) to advance their agendas. Such a foundation, sooner or later, cracks.

The Church of England formed because of a certain earthly king who put his loins, lust and lineage above GOD. How many people died because of this and the rivalries that still go on even today.
