"Catholic and Orthodox chr*stianity keep going via reproduction, not missionary activity. All this is" false
I'm sorry, but you haven't then seen Catholic missionaries in India, in China, in Africa. You probabaly haven't seen Catholic missions in England.
Should we do more -- YES, much, MUCH more and also incredibly more in the US, Western Europe etc.

All I know is that when I investigated Catholicism I had to take the initiative. I had to write K of C for their free correspondence course. And I had to make contact with the closest Catholic church (in the next county). I had to do it all. That's the way Catholicism works in America. It's an ethnic religion that accepts converts but doesn't seek them out and which reacts to missionary activity the same way Jews do.
