I think it also says something about how the Churches are changing internally right now, but that is better measured elsewhere.

Agreed.

I've noticed Catholic priests have been speaking up far more, and I would assume this is rightfully having a positive effect on their congregations. Priests, pastors, ministers, etcc..have a duty to their congregations and when they fail their congregations suffer. There seems to have been a reversel in the Catholic Church of late.

Meanwhile some traditional protestant denominations have been liberalizing their accepted doctrine and members and this has the fact of harming their congregants, or chasing them away.

I was formally a protestant but attend a non denominational Church now. It doesn't matter what church one attends, when they begin to deviate from traditional interpretation of scripture it leads to new allignments elsewhere. Most genuine Christians are not going to put up with a PC religion.

I think so, and I sure pray it keeps going.

I think that's very true. When they get PC, it tends to obscure any real faith that's there, and if you don't see the faith, what is the point in staying at that Church?

People seek truth, not platitudes.

God bless,

Unfortunately here in CT, the priests are for the most part liberal as he!!
