Thanks poly - I meant to include that in my post. It is a tribute that Jenkins is not Catholic and therefore can stand apart and do the research from a removed point.

The show mentioned his other book - something like "the new face of Christianity" or "the coming Christianity" - which also sounded interesting. He says that Christianity (particularly Catholicism) is booming in southern parts of the world and that in 50 years only 1 in 5 Catholics will be white. He also says that "southern" Catholicism is much more orthodox and so this will have profound changes for us here in the USA. Gives me hope although I most likely won't be around to see it (I'll be 94 and in a wheelchair with an oxygen tank trying to light a cigarette).

It's not just Catholicism - The Anglican Communion is now predominantly Black and Yellow... which has the rather interesting side effect of highlighting the racism inherent in the heretical 'liberals' here in the states. I would expect y'all would be seeing something similar no?

I would also submit that conservative Catholics should wear the attacks of this film as a badge of honor, since the real Enemy never has his servants attack those who are not serving God.
