From Peter Kwasniewski
The Catholic Church on earth has a priest problem. A big one. Over the last five decades, America has lost 40% of its priests (https://www.cbsnews.com/news/pope-leo...) . France ordains fewer men each year than most suburbs produce high school graduates. German seminaries remain largely empty. Ireland struggles to fill even a single seminary class. The same institution that survived Roman persecution, barbarian invasions, and two world wars can’t convince young men to become priests. Something fundamental has broken. What is it, and how can we put it right again? The answers are there... we just have to believe them and show that we believe them.

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Leo XIV as the Vicar of Christ, the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
