This is my first post of the kind, which explains the large number of links. I don't count on the figure being so high in the future.
Catholic schools being forced to teach agaisnt the faith, Catholic universities choosing to teach against the faith, cardinals engaging in scandalous behaviour, the Ancient Latin Rite being suppressed; it doesn't seem as though the year has got off on the best start for the Church militant. However, as the saying goes, "the greater the odds, the greater the glory".
There is always hope.
